Saw this on C-List this afternoon. Looks pretty close to stock. $5800 (good price for California).

Yes, definitely a lot to like. If I wasn't saving up to redo the 65 I would be all over that and searching out the few parst it needs for stock configuration.

Good Luck finding a stock exhaust... that stupid donut on the rear of the frame [discontinued after about '84] ruined the exhaust...which was thin anyway... Ruined 2 for me before I woke up and quit using the damn thing!!!
Picking Nits here, but, I am Not a fan of gators, except on some well done Sportsters, and Can't ride with bars like that... and.... nah... good buy for the locale...
