RIDER quality bike, OT a show bike. Get on and go. Worry about imperfections (for example chrome pitting on the exhaust, aint on the oil tank chipped, ..) later.
In general, n original survivor with some loving upgrades that can be easily removed to get back to the stock look. NOTE: I have the chrome front fender that is included in the sale. Fender is in nice shape. I took it off for looks.

Original blue/white paint on tank and headlight bucket. Both sidecovers/oil tank have been painted white years ago (they should be blue). Has the dipstick in the fuel tank under the gas cap. Tank has some dings and dents, ut overall presentable. Original plastic Yamaha tank emblems have cracks, ut they are holding together. Chrome on the rims is nice, s well as the general condition of the bike. Note, he exhaust have some pitting and are not that great looking, ut are solid. The right side exhaust had a leak that I got brazed. Handlebars have nice chrome and are straight. Gauge package/face is very nice compared to most out there. Please compare to others out there. Original brake/clutch levers with perches. Seat cover was likely replaced, ut is a proper Yamaha brand. Seat foam is nice, nd rebounds. I'm guessing the foam was replaced as well.
