Selling my bike. It runs great but it's no fun to ride here at the beach with nothing but straight, flat roads filled with idiot tourists, so it just sits in the garage. It has less than 5k total miles. Asking $5,500. Located in Pawley's Island, SC. It would ship pretty much anywhere for $500 FWIW, that's how I got it to me. I can't help with delivery because I don't have a trailer so you'll have to come to me or have it shipped.
It's been dropped once, the very first time I got it started I took it out to see how it ran (on 40 year old tires). Came up to a stop sign, tried to turn left, tires wouldn't lean at all and I had to either lay it down or ride into a ditch. Other than that it's never been in an accident.

It rides great and is a looker.
It doesn't need anything, but what I would recommend doing to it is:
- A lower triple tree with adjustable bump stops to keep the clip-ons from hitting the tank (or a new upper triple and clubman bar setup)
- Front fender if that's your thing. It looks awesome without it but don't try riding it in the rain like that
- The original tins are in "ok" shape, I'd call them a 7/10. The problem is they can't be refinished easily because the original color codes have been lost (it's a candy color, silver base with gold tin over it). The only way to get this color back is to buy a new set from yamiya, which is $$$. About $1k.
