              Changed funky grips and added correct mirrors. Will sell the real nice Vetter fairing and mount if anyone interested.

                Beautiful bike. It looks like someone spent a lot of time polishing side covers and blasting the engine fins.

                    I watch the Detroit area CL and never noticed it- you must have imported it!

                    It's absolutely gorgeous!

                    Congratulations.

                        No carb work? Bet the pickup wires are shot and it has the wrong oil in it
