    When they are the original insulators that have become plastic... those VF750F carbs can be a fucking bitch to get out. Something about the angle that doesn't help. Had to have almost butchered them to get back in if he didn't replace.

    I kinda like the paint. Except for the very poor placement of the wing on the tank. Wrong angle. Fail.

    They're not even the same from left to right!!
    EDIT: Maybe they are equally terrible. Some pictures they look different.

    Also, terrible "fender eliminator".

    I think that is the same dude that went thru a 94 my buddy was looking at. I did my typical pick it apart, and he was like, "oh. yeah, now I see." Corrosion issues all over. Looked good from 10 feet.

    Pretty sure that's the same driveway.

    Just embellishment all around, but that is most people these days. Not a fan of the orange. Shiny overall. :)

    Not normally a fan of orange either (and I would never do it), but it works with that grey, imo.

    Hey 6 do you work for Bikecurious/Iconic? You seem to find all the stuff.

    I am ok with the colors … not in love with it but ok. I would have kept the fork legs black.

    The Iconic guys are real close friends of mine. I have invested in some high price bikes with them in the past. Made some nice profits… I can say I have owned a couple of NR750’s … well a part of them.
    Nice high tech rides but I would never “own” one outright.

    I’m always looking for my next project so I search on my spare time… currently I’m working on 3 82 CB1100r’s and a Gs1000s Wes Cooley…
