 Ok, cut the zip ties and took a closer look. No bolts holding radiator, oil cooler. No tank bracket, no seat latch/key, broken fender where turn signals mount. Missing bracket for front fender (it was just sitting in place.) Broken trottle cable. Short/broken wires on front brake light switch. Some other wiring problems. No seats or grab rail. No tool box/tools. Carbs are gummed up. Air box has duct tape covering part of the air inlet; probably an attempt to richen it up. |
 Dealer gave me a tail off a crashed bike as it was missing also. It was crappy yellow paint with blue strip. Sanding revealed 7 different colors of paint and two layers of primer. |
 Plastic weld of fairing. It was broken from rear along ridge all the way down to lower front. Previous owner had done epoxy/fiberglass that just peeled of. Both inside and outide were welded. Outside was sanded smooth and will need just a bit of putty to cover pinholes. Still some crappy bondo on the bottom edge. |
 It took a lot of sanding/priming but only a tiny bit of spot putty. Now it looks good. The vent is a bit ragged, but it is hard to get to, There is still some Bondo craks from a previous repair on the bottom edge, but they will be hard to see and too much work. |
