Has been ridden to Daytona several times. and has gone on local Saturday sportbike rides. Of course. it doesn't perform like the modern Kawasaki in-line-4 sportbikes. nbsp; but that is not why you ride this bike. When it rolls up it always classes up the group. and gets attention from the crowd. Paintjob is “garage-paint-booth” quality. metallic black. just note that I am not a pro painter. There is a blemish/chip on the top/left side of the tank that I just covered with black vinyl – see pictures – that has been there for 8 years. Not too noticeable. not worth repainting IMHO. but just letting you know it is not perfect. All the steel. plastics & tank are original. I shortened the rear seat frame and (that big banana seat) seat pan about 15” to make a solo seat. and had it re-covered/padded by a local upholstery shop. All new wiring is just the basics. Kept OEM regulator/rectifier. but original harness was chucked. No horn. nbsp; blinkers or gauges --- they were tossed when bike was purchased – they didn't really look good on this kind of old-skool bike. I did however hook up three LED lights on the headlight shell -- Oil (red). Neutral (green). Highbeam (blue) – see pics –The bike has just been just sitting around a lot lately. Too many bikes and not enough time to ride them all. So it is time to let someone else cherish it. Bike runs and tracks well. carbs were just rebuilt. frame is straight. no known accidents.
