    Amazing sound and incredibly smooth to ride. Unlike anything else I have ever ridden.
    theyre nice in black, with the black wheels, i could never figure why hondas first year didn't match the sidecovers to the tank and tailpeice, also why when they had done a superb job oo the same years 900 and 740 ensuring the tank sidecovers and tailpeice flowed into each other they didn't do it on these. it was owned by a sid te peho (spelling in palmy) was it?

    Shit we might even have to get your RD running. Been over a year since I moved it to your place.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Cool I'll pop round. . .

    If it runs rough and plugs are good there is more invasive cleaning of airjets that ultrasonic won't get. But it might have been stored dry.

    Usually take her for a warranted ride (Rego on hold, 12 months at a time) But Warrant is always current. Flys through, every time!
    Love this old girl, shes going no where, 1 1/2 years, the rego goes to $78.00 per year, cant wait.

    Morning me ol mate! Yep, shes still in the fold, refused to start yesterday.
    Guess it's time to replace the old Shorai battery, first time in 10 years, since she got it that she hasn't started.
    1 Year earlier and I could have kick started her.
    Happily ensconced in Nukuhau Taupo now Flubby, will pm the addy etc, in case you are down this way, anytime!

    It's been a few years since I last posted, but hopefully come Tuesday evening I'll be posting a pic here...

    Still have my YZF's & FZR's but I'm really looking forwards to this next one :-)

    ETA: Here we go...
