    He actually just bought the bike from an eskimo who had it stored in an igloo, it won't run without the choke, but the headlight works. He's currently looking for carb rebuild kits and any hints on the best way to clean the carbs..........

    Nice pic,but why does the rider have that "I'm gonna cut you up and eat your spleen" look in his eyes???

    -Maybe becase he's about to be crushed between 2 glaciers????

    I've got one. It is a great bike. It gets attention wherever I take it.

    Yes, the 1000R gets the most attention. It definitely has the looks with the dual headlights. My 500 is kind of unique with the full fairing and white rims. It too gets its fair share of attention. Each of my '86 Interceptors might only see 100-200 miles on the road every other year. They don't get out often.

    oh back to the post. uh yeah that rocks thats why I own one.... you can freeze it in a glacier and thaw it out 22 years later and the headlight works.

    That is a long term goal. The short term goal was to acquire each model of the '86 lineup (which is the best of all time!!!). I'm missing the pearl white 700, but it is the same bike as the 750, so the 750 is what I went after. I did have a 5th Gen, but sold it for the '07 RWB.
