Hey all -
I am going to inspect a 1988 Hawk GT 647 for a potential purchase, but wanted to get some advice on the things to ask about and look for. I searched for an FAQ or archive of information but came up empty-handed.
It has 10,000 miles.
What are the typical points of failure/problems that I should inspect closely or test? If you were going to buy this bike, what would you look at or be concerned about?
Here's a pic, just in case it helps:

Prompt responses and advice are greatly appreciated - I'd like to look it over in the next 2-3 days but I don't want to view it until I've been properly prepped
Thanks all!
