Lead additive?

So I picked up a 1967 ca160

my question is.

does this bike and others like it need lead added to the gas to lube the valves?

we just got it up and running and my friend's Dad (he likes old bikes too) says it needs some lead additive put into the gas.

Does this sound right?

thanks

Re: just bought a CA 160-anyone else out there ?

Just picked up a 1966 (thats what the title says) CA 160 a friend spotted at a yard sale. Looks to be in "reasonable" shape. Does have the original tool kit ! Got a replacement front fork on evilbay (has a nasty gash in the original) and have poked around in it a bit. Has compression, but no spark....

If you need any parts let me know. I haven't really taken a good inventory of what I have, just picked up the bike and tossed it in ...
