Honda Interceptor description

I have a 1985 Honda VF1000R project that I have lost interest in.  I have title, but still in previous owners name. I have $1,200 into it, but would accept a 'Best Offer'.  Try me, you may be surprised. 
If you are familiar with these bikes, you know how unique and advanced it was for 1985, but so heavy, it could not compete against the other race bikes of the time.  
It might be worth more being parted out, but I dont want to mess with the effort that it would involve.  Comes with a service manual.  

Not in running condition, but close. I have not performed a compression or leak down test.  Carbs have been rebuilt and installed. 
Miles on ODO may not be representative of the bike, since it came in a box of parts when I bought it. Previous owner has several of these bikes, so ODO could have come from any other them.
Missing front plastics/fairing pieces and other misc bits.
Tank is solid with very light surface rust on inside, on spot welds. 
Seat is in great condition and not faded.  No holes.
I do not have the bump-cushion for the rear cowl.
 
If you want a specific picture or have a question, please feel free to ask. 
 
Thank you

Not Even Death Can Stop Him From Riding

How much do you love riding? Probably not as much as this guy did. David Morales Colon, 22, was shot to death April 22 in Puerto Rico.

Just got back from the Stafford show. It was packed. Largely with groups of silver-haired men.

Isle of Man TT 2013: Lightweight TT Race Results

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

James Hillier set new lap time and race time records in a dominating victory in the Lightweight TT race for the 2013 Isle of Man TT. All three of the Kawasaki rider’s lap times were faster than the previous lap record for the Lightweight TT class, for a record overall time of 57:42.245 and average speed of 117.694 mph. The race started with another Kawasaki rider (the class is dominated with Kawasaki Ninja 650s with a few Suzuki SV650s) Dean Harrison taking the early lead through the Glen Helen viewpoint but Hillier was right on his tail about half a second behind.
