Wow, very nice bike! I appreciate that you've provided one of the most thorough descriptions I've read on here. It would be nice if every bike sale provided a detailed report like yours, there would be fewer surprises when the bike arrived. Good luck with the sale.
 
if you part it out id be interested in the entire speedo unit with switches, front fender and fender bomb...
