    That is kind of an apples/oranges scenario, but I think you could ask for 8+ depending on the mileage. I see that as a death bed sale only. lol

    Sorry... lost in my feed.

    I did that a long time ago, mostly over the summers of 89 & 90. All period parts. The Telefix lowers came painted out of Germany. The mufflers were made by the Telefix distributor, Spec II.

    Then in the mid 90's I completely disassembled the bike and serviced everything. New steering head bearings and fork seals / bushings.

    It is actually mostly stock and original. Wheels, turn signals, rear handle and some other small bits shot in lacquer that first summer.

    Oh, and the seat cover is a custom from Second Look.

    Thanks man!

    I keep remembering more shit. Russel stainless lines all around. Telefix adjustable clip-ons. All the brackets like footpegs, triple clamps and grab handles shot in a Medium Gray Metallic lacquer too.
