i picked this up in the fall. played with it in my spare time through the winter. it was a simple reassembly with a few electrical issues.
it is an rl model that originally came with a half fairing with square headlight and a chin spoiler.
i put over 200km's on it saturday for a shakedown. it really howls above 3000.
the one complaint i have is the foot peg placement. i found them really high compared to the seat height. i couldn't imagine having long legs, but they would make good armrests for long tours.
that looks like a fine old steed drauff. here is mine in it's latest form. it's the long haul bike of the fleet.
i just got back from three days in the beaver valley, blue mountain area at the north end of the niagara escarpment.
the trees are just starting to turn colour.
