If it were me, I would ride it, and let it speak to me. Maybe you'll find the seat uncomfortable, or the handlebars. Maybe you"ll want a different sized windshield. That bike has apparently spent some time sitting, so I would definitely make sure all the parts that could rot and deteriorate over time are in good shape (rubber motor mounts, tires, etc.) I wouldn't get too hung up on the "bagger" style trendy stuff you're seeing in magazines. Ride the bike, and make it your own. Welcome to the forum.

Thanks to all for the input. I will be honest, the seat is like sitting on a couch.

My goal is a cross between old school/new school. Front wheel is 21 inches, but a wire spoke. 18 in the rear that matches, BUT the tires are whitewalls LOL. I got a 4 inch windshield as well.

Any input on the 2010 radio?
