So is it vandalized to the point where its not streetable or what? If not, I would get it, ride it for a little while and then turn it into one hell of a track bike.

the guy had it and was in the army. he kept it on base and the only thing vandalized was the side fairings they were stolen as well as the visor thats it
tires are fine
i heard they are notorious for a rod knocks but its fine no smoke idles good
so to get it on the rode all i would need are the side fairings and a visor
nothing has been tampered with
