Yes I noticed the shroud. Paint looks good except for the tank top.
Are you going to get it
Will it turn out to need all sorts of work to get it running properly and reliably ?

No..not getting it...I haven't a clue as to what it might need..at my age..I'm not one for working on a 36 year old bike..that prolly shouldn't be trusted until it is torn down and thoroughly checked out..you know like Jeff does..
I have neither the skills or the money to do that...Anything short of that is risking alot..
The bike needs to be 100% turnkey..or I'm not interested
