Default Going to check out an 81 550 LTD - anything I can look for?

I love that 80's look and I've found one that looks to be in good shape. I'm going to check it out today and am wondering if theres anything specific to look for.

I realize that it comes down to how well its been maintained - but the bikes so old I'd only know to check the basic stuff like the fork seals, chain tension, etc.

I've looked at a couple bikes in this age range over the last week and I've been tremendously disappointed so I'm really hoping this one is nice - I'd love to have one of these!
