Buy the Combat if it's still available. I've always had much more regret over the bikes that I didn't buy. I've purchased some bikes that I just didn't click with and was always able to resell them for what I had paid. Never try to overthink emotion.
Sent you a PM on this...kinda off topic for the thread, but yes, my boat is a Marstrom...good guess!Maarstom?

I plan to be in Ottawa 12/18-12/28. Maybe I can arrange a jaunt over to TO to check it out. Be great if you'd lend your opinions in person....Yes I can go look at it for you. Unless you want to come to Toronto then I have a place for you to crash. Heading off to the Annual X-mas Mayfair Plating party now so more later...
A Combat converted to a single Mikuni? That should be worth 2000 bucks off the price - consider it as a fine for doing that to a Combat Commando!
.......
Good Luck!

OK, seriously, the list sounds pretty good to me. The price seems a bit high but I haven't been looking recently so maybe it's not bad. Honestly, although I would immediately put the OEM manifold/dual Concentrics back on it, and I'm totally NOT a Boyer fan (either Trispark or OEM points/AAU), it sounds like a pretty decent bike.
Good Luck!
