13,600 miles. Titled. Runs great. K&N filters. Good tires. Good Battery. Electrical works. New seat. Bought his for my girlfriend but she doesn't want it. I also have a new pair of larger dellorto PHBH30 carbs for $200. Have more photos available. Partial trades considered

Mine cost a little more, had new Avons, cables, brakes but cheap pods for filters.

It ran bad so I've taken out the 1 1/2 intake gaskets, replaced the worthless/split cheap pods with real K & N's, WD40's all the switchgear to get them working smooth, replaced the dash lights, replaced the odd headlamp with a special positive position 45-H4 and bought a couple sets of jets. When the jets come in it will be change jets, see how she runs then repeat if necessary.

I wonder if they have the right key for the fork locks and ignition.
