Default hello, ive bought a project

Ive recently got around to starting a project ive bought,ive had a 100f before same shape and moved onto a blackbird that rinsed me for money and got sold, seen this and had to have it just for the look, mechanicly it needs lots of tlc but i rode it 200 miles home and it didnt miss a beat, my heart did the next morning when i looked at what i had bought.

Exhaust was held together with fiberglass,the chain adjusters were that far back the chain had been taking chunks out of the tyre,the chain was so worn u can see the pins through the rollers,front wheel bearings are heavily worn, so bad that with the brakes off you can move the wheel about 10mm from side to side, headset bearings are worn, and it needs fork seals ? but it does run smoothly with no cam chain rattle at all if you ignore the cam noise
