Looks just like my old Interstate.  I loved that bike, but I only had time for one.

That bike was Bark2 bike from Topeka, Ks.  I helped him get it home . The guy that had it before Jerry only put 4500 miles on it.  I'm not sure how many miles were on it when Jerry sold it.  I wnt through the whole bike.  Carbs,  final drive,  all fluids.  You name it.  I think it had the original tires on it.  I remember Jerry saying that it went to Billy Joel and they picked it up in a car hauler that was a semi.  I've got pictures on my pc,  I'll have to dig them out.  I know it has MarkT exhaust, new petcock,  and demogged.  ha ha.

Thanks for sharing G- man.  miss you buddy.

  The thing all of us will notice is how it is sneaking under the rope because they are so long.
