    Picked up a somewhat decent condition 86Vfr 700f

    Right away I had to replace the charging system and fix the sloppy wire harness, and replace the rear tire.

    It was black and yellow, and the camera didnt catch all the flaws etc.. 20160702_203325.jpg

    Stripped the bike down and got out the rattle cans and went to work. 20160717_195350.jpg

    I was about to put the side fairings back on but seeing my bike without, I actually think I dont want to put them back on. So.. Now its time for more paint, and pinstripes.

    Soon I am planning a cross country ride so I am going to pick up 2 ammo cases for panniers "hard saddle bags"

    In the last week I have put 500 miles or so on her without any problems. Feeling pretty dang good inside haha.. 20160717_1855261.jpg
