Marty, yea that what everyone keeps telling me, it's very valuble and pretty rare as a sticker especially when it only has 12k miles and I can face it's while history( so 's I am now the second owner).
The
At bike you pictured is what I am working towards. I want it to look close to that.
Ahh ok. Makes sense, thank you very much! I don't plan on diving into corners much. I mainly plan on driving to the local bike might/car shows.
All the info is very much appreciated. A huge thank you to everyone.
