Is that an original colour option? Seems like it is missing some white on the tank for some reason?!?!

No, solid purple tank was not an option.

Hard to imagine for sure.  Those headers are sure blued, and even the exhaust cover looks like it has seen excessive heat.  That Army doctor must have ran that engine for a long time with the fuel enrichment full-on.  My guess is <101,000 miles.  And yes, that tank color doesn't look quite right.

Even too these old tired eyes the alignment of the two zeroes on the odometer appear off! Be interesting to see pics of the underside of this machine. BUT even with the pics presented thinkin here it ain't a sub 1000 mile bike. RIDE SAFE.

Looks like one that came up a few months ago at another location. Same story about military MD. Once around the clock and it is brand new again.
