Dave,
 I saw that one on Ebay, but figured I don't need a third '72 Six-Day. So you've visited the sprawling metropolis of Paris, MI. Is there still a gas station there ? You were about 40 miles east of my childhood home. Just a little north of there is some good riding. In days of old, you may have bumped into the likes of King Richard while riding those parts.
Sounds like you're fairly satisfied with your purchase, that's good.
The tank on that bike is the small Hi-Point accessory tank. Without any major dents, it should be worth half of what you paid for the bike.
You should check with Al B. for a complete seat, shifter, and pipe shield.
Alloy fenders are available from the Royal Enfield people.
