Hi all. New to the forum and very glad to be here.  Any views on the above bike. There's one for sale in my area and i'm keen to have a look - i have ABSOLUTELY no idea of what to look out for though ie what would be the big red signs ito mechanical soundness when i go check her out. I can get it for $650 - not sure of this is a good price but the chap seems negotiable. The idea is that this will be a long term project bike...thinking of a cafe racer conversion. any and all thoughts would be hugely appreciated. 

Ps. my last bike was way back '92 so i am a real newbie.

Thanks
Craig
