Default Picking up a 1982 Seca 750 Sunday - What to look for?

I'm picking up an 82 Seca 750 Sunday, it will be my first street bike I've been riding motocross for roughly 15 years.

Anything I should look for? I know the Virago's had starter issue's.

It's a pretty clean bike, should be a lot of fun.

Thanks

Welcome ...
if the engine is noise at tick over ... dont worry it just needs some adjustments ... has the bike got the full cyclome fitted or the centre piece ... full ones can cost if they go wrong ... but to be fair most problems were down to wiring of the cyclome !
Regards Jim
