I bought this bike used from Craigslist, and it was in bad shape: neglected and abused. Both Blinker lenses were broken and just hanging by the wires. Fairings were broken and badly touched up in many areas. The gas tank was dented and faded. Thick layers of dirt and grease underneath like if it hasn't been cleaned or washed since 02.

After applying a little duct tape on the blinkers for a test ride, I found it was mechanically sound, strong, smooth and had crazy torque, handling like it just came out of the dealership.

That's the reason i bought it, and now, finally, the outside matches the inside. Feels good to know that a little love and hard work is appreciated by others.
