Impulse buy, saw it on ebay, the seller came way down on his price, how could I refuse?

The thing is a rocket, loves to scream up to 9K RPM! And fun to ride, handles real well, and was cheap. Needs a seat, just ordered a nice one on ebay for $80 shipped.

Will give my H1 a run for the money! What do you know about these??

Thanks for the comments, guys. Not original tires, fairly new IRC GS11's, a good budget tire, I have them on my CB550.

The bike is dirty, off work tomorrow, plan to clean it up and ride if the roads are dry!
