You know what, I can't even be a dick...buddy, on old liter bikes the brakes are a weak link, steel braided lines are a must. Check the pads too. Tires gotta be new(ish). You don't wanna be rolling on 10 year old rubber, even if it has tread left. Take a trackday class, and a msf new rider class. Your dirt background is gonna give you good bike control, but 1000cc is 1000cc, and traffic is a whole new ballgame.
