This is my first request for help. Be gentle guys.
Just acquired a 1943 741 junior Scout, my first antique bike (if you don't count the ones that would be antiques now if only I would have been smart enough to keep them).
1. Where is the best place to find a battery that fits the box correctly? I understand it's supposed to be a 12 amp hour 6 volt, correct? Do you know the battery number.
2. Where is best place to get an owners and/or service manual?
3. And now for the really newbie questions (I could wait and read it in the manual, but I don't mind looking dumb). How do you know how much oil to run in the tank, and what to use (?HD 20-50).
4. If they did not rebuild with hardened valves, what to run for fuel? Use an additive, or just unleaded?
Thanks alot.
