Welcome & Merry Christmas to you also Pack.

Interesting looking bike.  How much room do you have between your chain guard and the tire?

Thnx!

Welcome Pack and a Merry Christmas to you too.. 

Thats a Fibreglass Tracy kit on your Honda, i would get rid of the 4 inch over fork tubes and clean her up, she'll look great. Look up forum member seaweb, he has a nice Tracy just like yours.... ;)

PS, get rid of the crap tire's... :o

That is a cool pic. I saw it recently posted on Ebay and ended a day or two ago.. You decide to sell right away or you the one who bought it?

Very cool body kit..

He was flipping the bike (so I'm not really sure why he signed up here). He's a member on advrider and that's just what he does I guess, buys old bikes and flips them.

Now that I've stared at the photos a bit I think it's a different kit. Looks similar.
