And thanks to everyone for your compliments! Being perfectly honest, I'm not a huge fan of the flames either (flames on a motorcycle??? unheard of!!! :silly: ), but considering the cost to repaint everything, and the current condition of the paint, I'm satisfied.

I do have a Z1 knock off color scheme (and the proper emblems) in mind when I have $700 to burn B)

If it has tits or tires, it'll give you problems!

Thanks! I lost a side cover a year ago and had one painted- it's actually a factory Honda automobile color. I thought for sure it was that burnt orange color Chevy uses (a Z06 Vette in that burnt orange color looks MEAN!).

Nice thing to plant your a$$ on. Nice indeed.

Take it from me cuz I found
If you leave it then somebody else is bound,
To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure,
When yours, it could have been.

Beautiful Classic! Love the Kerker. Like the flames, subdued and tastefully done. Any flames on your helmet? Here's one I just picked up.
