Vehicle Detail

It has 79,000KM on it, as per this type of bike the speedo has not worked since I have owned it (the last ten years) but I have done just fine with either following the flow or reading the tach. The odometer reads 79,000 but I know I have put at least 10,000 miles on it since I have owned it. Have ridden two up through the Shenandoah mountains with no problem. Have gotten a lot of great comments on it, even from Harley riders! Hate to sell it but need money so time to move on. I have driven it nonstop NY to VA, an 7 hour trip, numerous times with nothing more than stiff legs. New (less than a year old): - Front and rear tires - Rear shocks - Odessey Battery (the more expensive one) - Rebuilt carbs - Gas lines - Left side controls - Oil and fluids change - Front down tube boots Needs: - Rear wheel bearings - Mufflers (headers okay and only reason for replacement is they are a little loud) Unique to bike: - Custom stitched leather seat cover - Wixom saddlebags - Trunk that can hold one full face and on open helmet with lock - Vetter 3 fairing with BMW /5 turn signals and lowers - Rear passenger foot rests (need new rubber)This bike is a strong runner with a lot of add ons and new stuff just ready to move on to a newer bike and not willing to invest anymore in this bike. BTW I have been told that this bike has the Euro cam in it so it is much quicker than US bikes.
