I doubt they had cross country touring in mind when they built it.
I'm guessing it was built to look cool, win some trophies and occasionally cruise around town on sunny weekends.

Agreed, I like it too but the headlight blows.

I love everything but the headlight... It looks super cool in profile, but that's about it. If this were mine, I'd swap it for a classic teardrop one and call it good. Seriously love everything else.
