The spare is useless - the tire is flat, old, and unsafe. However, it appears to be original. My intention is to keep it in the carrier under the fuel tank as a decoration. I first sprayed it off with water, lightly taped over the yellow "CAUTION" sticker (which may be irreplaceable), and masked off the rubber tire before spraying the wheel back to black. I then applied some tire shine.
