    Too many.

    Now I have to decide between this rarity and a VFR750 6x I found.

    Of course I do, sili.

    But I would need a new battery to fix it.

    It’s basically an original VTec motor before Honda knew they invented it!
    Absolutely ahead of its time !

    I'm not sure what tires those are, but the front one looks like it's mounted backwards to me.
    Everything else looks mint though. Grab a new silinoid and you've got a showroom model.

    Cylinders aren't missing... just the spark plugs.

    It is backwards. BUT, it mates perfectly with rear wheel-barrow tire.

    Ignition switches?!... We don't need ignition switches where we're going!

    Isn't Albuquerque where the major drug manufacturers produce all the meth? Maybe a a coincidence?
