Here is a small list: -Engine has new top end, pistons, and gaskets -New tire/tubes -New fork seals -New tank -New custom side covers -New custom seat ($250) -New signals and brake light -Custom front (not mounted) and rear fenders -New front master cylinder -New mufflers -New Battery -Grips, Mirrors -Air Filters Bike is a blast to ride! Have 2 different service manuals for it. Bike has clean/clear title and numbers all match.
