It just needs to be converted to electric power and it would be perfect!

Saw this today in local bike shop. Superb condition but lots of mods so might affect the value.
Most obvious was the top yoke. Did this model have USD forks?

What's the year? Late 80s?

Value?

Looks like it might have the swingarm from a watercooled 1100.

What that black and chrome monstrosity? Looks like a child drew a picture of a bike. Badly.
