Looks more like a 2012 model than 1983. I've always liked that bike. Is this one a keeper?

The SuperTrapps really take me back. It looks like you have all the baffles. Take a few out every once in a while just for old times sake.  |

Can you shoot a pic from the front?
Would love to see that fairing from a better point of view.

Do a video of you starting it and revving it a few times for us. Ask SOQS to hold the camer while you run it up and down the block. Do it, please!!!! I have to hear it.
Are the rear shocks stock? I don't recall ever seeing rear shocks with the fluid resevoir on the bottom of the shock.
Awesome looking bike, man.
