A big hello from Upstate NY
« on: June 23, 2007, 07:33:04 PM »
Hey All,
My name is Javier and I have a '76 750 F.  I'll have pics up soon.  Right now I'm changing her personality.  I stripped it down last year, but I'm not totally happy withm the way it turned out.  So of course I'm taking her apart again.  I post some pics of the before and after.  Anyway, hello again.

Hey,
I live in Rochester, right acroos a big lake from good ol Canada.  I try to make the most of the riding season.  It's tough though when I always want to keep changing my bike.

Hey All,
Finally got around to finding some pics.  These are the before and after from last year.  I'm probably about 1/4 into this years 'adjustments'.  Hopefully will be done by the end of summer.  We'll see, trying to get an old Yoshi racing exhaust (the icing on the cupcake) ;)

It's actually tan.  So is the fuel lid.  Not the best picture I guess.

I'm about an hour away. PM me if you'd like to meet up for a ride sometime. I'm doing some major rewiring, but my bike should be running again within the week.
