good to know!!! i ran the vin,said she was good on recalls. keep smiling MarcelThe peeling head covers are minor. If it really bothers you, you can remove them and use an aircraft paint stipper to remove the old clearcoat. Some 0000 steel wool to polish them and then spray with high temp clearcoat. The only cost would be new cover gaskets and the paint materials. I did this on my 1985. Actually looked better than when it was new.
Since you live in Vermont, you have a long winter to do the work.
As Cantankerous said, have the dealer run the VIN to make sure recalls were done.
If the dealer is willing, have them change all the fluids. Brake, clutch, coolant and final drive oil,
