    Alright, here are some shots of my bike.

    I got it three years ago with 18k on the clock, 21K now. Both the lowers and the upper fairing were destroyed, the right cover was scratched and the radiator was smashed up. Amazingly the radiator didn't leak and a new cap was all it needed. The new fairings are courtesy Chuck Crites. Notice the dzus fasteners?

    The paint job isn't great. When I installed the fairing the mounting hardware was pretty bent up. I moved things around and the panels looked good before paint. After paint and decals it was clear the panels didn't line up as well as I thought. Oh well.

    This spring: new clutch plates/springs, fork rebuild and new brake disks. The carbs had been rebuilt and a new chain/sprocket installed just before I got it. Still looking for a fork brace. Anyone have one to sell? I've got some aluminum stock, if I ever get some time I'll make one. I would like to remove the California emissions stuff as well. It has a K&N air filter and I want to back to stock to try and get a little more fuel to the motor. The motor has been flawless

    Anyway, it's no showroom piece but it still gets some looks. Along with the Ninjas, this was the hot bike when I was in high school. I actually have this matching 4 piece saddle bag, seat bag and tank bag outfit for this bike. It's so old that the fabric fell apart!
