THIS BIKE HAS BEEN IN HEATED STORAGE IN A PRIVATE COLLECTION FOR THE LAST 8 YEARS, I RECENTLY REMOVED AND CLEANED THE CARBS AND TOOK IT FOR A SHORT RIDE.  THE BIKE RUNS WELL-- BUT WILL NEED A LITTLE MORE "FETTLING" TO GET IT GOOD AND RIGHT.  THE CLUTCH NEEDS AN ADJUSTMENT, CARBS COULD USE A TUNING, AND BOTH SPEEDO AND TACH GAUGES ARE "SLUGGISH".  NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY FOR A BIKE SITTING THIS LONG - BUT I NEED TO MENTION IT. 
THIS IS A VERY, VERY NICE, HARD TO FIND BIKE!
