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

Statement by Kevin Schwantz: “I have read several reports regarding my attendance at the MotoGP test last week in Austin.

Traction control? Yawn...

My long-term Fireblade went back to Honda last week and, seeing as it’s sunny and mild outside now, I’m already missing it. It is one of the best 1000cc sports bikes out there, I don’t care what anyone else says, the way it makes its power is just perfect for fast road use. With the Power Commander 5 fitted and the fuelling sorted my 2011 Blade performed as well if not better than the 2012 version.
