I said I'd take mine off but after using it and remembering how helpful those things are. Especially cleaning and adjusting the chain. I saw a review on youtube of a guy scraping saying it was the centerstand. It's not. It's the front peg. I ride mine in the twisties a lot. It's the peg.

Not sure what you're looking for but if you wanted an 80s bike that won't have carb issues and good brakes you found it.

Only stuff I've done is brake lines (huge improvement) a full exhaust, a tune by Guhl (other huge improvement), desnorkeled and K&N , and some shocks and it made it a freighttrain. I love it.it's no cbr1000rr but that's not what you buy a CB for. It's a fun bike.
Don't mind me asking which brake lines did you use?
