Seems to be in fantastic condition. I bought it from the original owner. It's been garaged since new, except when he parked it at work.

I drove it last weekend for a bit and after 97 miles filled it up and checked gas mileage: 53.2 mpg, and I wasn't taking it easy at all.

Very happy so far, just want it to warm up a bit more.

Nice. I'll always have a soft spot for that generation.

Don't mod it. Resist the temptation. That is one bike that will be collectible. It represents a sea change in sport bike engineering.

Serious nice find there. I'd love an older RR like that. Bone stock would be the best.

If i mod it, it'll probably just be to put a slip-on pipe on it. That could always be reversed, if necessary.

Though I am putting heated handgrips on it. Ordered them today.

It appears to have truly followed you home

It did indeed. But it carried me to work today.

Very cool, I love the dual headlights. It's always great to see "older" sportbikes not beat to hell... I guess the problem is that they're a lot cheaper to buy than maintain.
