Mods and changes:
New Battery last month!
New spark plugs!
Comes with a full windshield if interested!
All lights (Turn/rear, running) minus head light replaced.
Previous owner installed aftermarket exhaust.
Rebuilt both carbs (fixed a leak that allowed gas in the oil)
Performed Carb Sync
Added connector to battery to allow easy charging.
Brackets for saddle bags!!
Oil change with full Synthetic

Additional info:
..Previous owner installed new pipes, have no clue what they are, both end on the right side.
..took off the wind shield because i like it better with out, have all hardware, easy to install.
..stock air filter, but looks like the carbs were re-jetted, 145 and 135 I think (from memory, cant find my notes)
...Paint is beautiful, base of black with blue sparkles that shine in the sun light with a gold to maroon transition inside the pin stripes. Nearly every time I park some comes over to check out the bike. Love the 80's look!
...Shaft drive!!

Cons:
...25MPG - comes with the re-jetting, its a monster of an engine with great accel, but only about 90 miles per tank (hwy)
...Amateur paint repair - on the gas tank, looks like the paint was chipped and was repaired but I barely notice it.

I smile every time I ride it, reason why I am selling it? It is very hard to start at anything below 30 F. This was meant to be my commuter and has been amazing until it dropped in temperature. To start in 35F weather I needed to bring starter fluid, anything below it will not start. I need a cold weather bike.

Asking $3000, willing to negotiate or trade. Looking for something more like a sport touring or just touring. Not easy to find a bike I like because Im short but wont let that stop me! PM me if interested, I can share VIN or answer any questions.
