Bought 1987 Concours for $2500 -- 38k miles, new fork seals, antifreeze, cam-chain adjusted. |
Oh gosh, no! I didn't just buy a 19 year old bike! |

Discovered mirror was broke riding out of the parking lot. I put it in my pocket and went home to fix it. Eventually, I J.B. Welded a screw through the broken part to get it back
together. It vibrates less than the other side. I took off the mirror "boots", as they looked like hell on this particular bike and taped on black vinyl. |

The taller Rifle windscreen came with the bike. |

Trip Odometer reset "stick" missing. Not sure how to go about fixing this yet. |

Petcock diaphragm (gasket) leaked all over my right leg on the way to work only 5 days after I bought it. I'm thinking, "What did I buy!" Luckily, dealer I just bought it from
replaced the part I shopped around for within a day for free. |
