Got me a Sabre

Just bought a 1982 V45 Sabre for $400! Needs some work, but is in pretty good shape considering the age. Probably need some carb work and new brakes and tires. Though the price was to good to let it go. What do you think? Also, any info on parts and performance mods would be great! Thank you.

Post up some pics and we'll let you know!

Can't be bad for $400 though.

Soon as I get some, I'll get em on here. Just got it a couple of hours ago. I was surprised to find no rust. Looks OK in my book.

+1 on the pictures.

First things first - you will need a Haynes manual or some sort... Has it been standing long? Mileage?
