- Ready to ride. Needs no repair for you to hop on and ride. You might want to adjust some things however.
- Brakes clutch throttle and shifter all work great.
- Tires in good shape; no leaks.
- Chain has plenty of life left in it from my assessment.
- Fairings clean. Kept covered w/ battery tender.
- Battery 3 months old. Turns engine over with ease.
- Until today I had not started the bike in 2 weeks butit starts right up as you can see in this video.
- Scratch and crack on tank paint. Tank appears to be undented. See pictures for detail.
- Throttle grip is a little sticky. To the touch. The throttle itself is not sticky. Smooth and responsive.
- Windshield is cracked and is missing a screw. I never saw it happen so I must've bought it that way.
- Fairing stay/frame (by the handlebars) was broken so I had it welded back together. Solid as a rock now.
- Plastic clean and in excellent condition. Some scratches.
- Tank key and ignition key are different. I have trouble telling which is which and I never got around to trying anything clever like painting one of them a different color.
