If the suspension is in good condition they ride & handle very well, better than my Hinkley Bonneville when it was stock. I have altered the Bonneville & it is still not as good as a G80CS.

All bikes have their little picadillos so read up on it & do all the maintanence as any other old vehicle. Cheers, Don.
