That's a beautiful bike. Having owned a Richard Cunningham designed Nishiki Ariel and my current K2 OzM, I have a soft-spot for elevated-stay bikes. I really do like their looks. I have always admired the Kirk Precision frames but I will have to agree with Maelstrom that it might be a bit of a strain to find and upkeep it with modern parts. If it were me, I'd keep the bike around in a restored but authentic state for fun riding and pick up a new bike for racing.
