I take it you are talking modern belt drive SS?

Great choice. Most of the work you can do yourself. Pretty solid bikes and they handle and go surprisingly well. I had a 750 dressed up with super light seat and exhausts and it looked and sounded fantastic. Definitely an appreciating future classic.

Try and go for a 900ss pre injection. They were very simple , reliable, looked great and handled beautifully. Never liked the look of the injected ss's

This was my 900ss FE

One of my most memorable test rides was on the 750 version of the above,
I was young and skint then so didn't buy it, but if a nice one came up for sale now !!!
