Right side cover is missing, too.. but that could make someone a really nice touring bike with a little TLC.

Yep, sure would. If I didn't already have one, or if the asking price was a little lower, or if I was closer to Middleton or wherever it is, blah, blah, blah.

Guuzy  ??? ;D The pipes aren't even rusted  :D Cafe racer , bobber  ::) Something to contemplate , if the first guy to start removing parts from a motorbike to increase performance had been named Jim , would the aforementioned motorbikes be referred to as Jimmers ? ;D

Well at least with this one you don't have to be concerned about chrome lined bores.  I think it could be a good one to get if the price was a bit less.

Little too much money for a non-regularly ridden oldster with missing parts ....

Anybody besides me have a problem with "keyword spamming"  ("cafe racer, scrambler") in an ad?    I think I'll start a thread on it.

I am do  buy into any 33 year old tires are good. Unless they were slobbered up good and plenty with brake fluid twice a year and even then I would  say they are cracked all around the rim.
I bet every single piece of rubber,tires,  brakes, oil, fuel lines, carbs  etc. need replacing.
But that said it looks like a decent bike if a bit over priced.
