That looks beautiful SoCal. Was it a local buy?
Yes, kind of local. I picked it up over at Iconic.
going to leave it basically stock w some serviceable item upgrades i assume?
Yep, the plan is to leave it pretty much as is. It's too original to mess with (beyond the mods that have already been done). It doesn't need much parts-wise. From looking over all the receipts and new parts, it looks like the seller put about $4500 into it. The whole front brake assembly appears new (new braided line, newish repro? caliper, and nice master). New K&N filter, new throttle cable, new ignition coils and plugs, new IRC tires, and new seat trim. Plus the new Vintage Smoke ignition, new clutch, new pistons, and new crank. The parts, tires and engine rebuild have less than 50 miles on them.
I've added side cover dampers, cylinder & head dampers, airbox lid strap, battery strap, toolkit, quick disconnect shutoff on the tank crossover, new OEM Y-boot, OEM Y-boot clamps, assorted OEM hardware, and replaced some ugly zip ties with the correct OEM straps.
I do need to pull the cylinders to investigate some noise from the top end and while that's apart I'll repaint the cylinders. And I need to pull the pump and check it. While that's out I'll repaint the engine covers and replace the badge on the ignition cover. And the headlight is burned out so I'm doing an H4 LED upgrade.
Should be completely done after that and needing nothing!
In its current state it rips! When it hits about 5500 it pulls like crazy. While riding yesterday I was having a hard time staying on the seat, I kept sliding back.
