Thanks, Ribs!  I can't believe I got such a great deal.  I was looking at one on CL a few months back that was a '76 in "Sulfer Yellow."  It looked pretty decent, but the guy was somewhat squirly on the title issue.   I could've picked it up for $100 cheaper than this one, but it wasn't in nearly as good a shape and it probably would've ended-up being a stolen bike.  

They guy who owned this bike is a Police Officer (detective), so the title is not at all an issue, thankfully!  

One thing I think may be a good thing is that the first owner (I'll be the third) had the bike decked-out for touring.  In a stereotypical world, I would be inclined to believe that that means the bike wasn't "hot-rodded" much.  Could be wrong, but I'm hoping so, anyway.

TOOLS, let me get back with you on the side covers.  There's a guy I contacted before I posted who has some aftermarket plastic and I sent him an email.  I'll wait to see what he has (not sure if he has 'em in stock or not, yet), and if that falls through, I'll buy yours.  I sure appreciate it, amigo!

By the way, does anyone know where to actually get the emblems?  I've found a site where you can get the tank decals (at www.knkcycles.com).
