Does "vintage handlebar grips" mean they are pre-worn out for that vintage feel?

Maybe it was put into storage more than once...

I'm surprised the term "steet fighter" didn't get into the description.

Being a V65c owner, and knowing what it feels like to be a "red headed step child" I have to say, no one restores a V65c. So when I see something like this I think " yes, it's a definite improvement, but without at least those 'buckhorn handlebars" it's definately not a resto, just an emprovement! LOL
