    The only problem is he has the WRONG CARBS on the bike!! IF he has the original set, it would be worth the money.

        That's not all...

        The gauges are wrong as well. He's got chrome ones on there and they should be black. It looks pretty good - from the pictures but, he doesn't give the mileage or any history to justify the (high) cost.

          and...

          The headlight ring is chrome and should be gold though, this may be one of the pieces that he changed for chrome because the gold was looking worn. The air box too, has been removed and/or changed. It too should be gold (can't see what exactly is there).
