Frankenbike

It has an F3 750 frame and body, K2 750 engine, most of the front forks and front brakes from a DOHC 750.

I'm not sure why the paint on the tank looks splotchy in this picture. It actually looks very nice in person. Here's a different picture of it:



I need to clean off the rebuild dust, and I need to polish on the engine some, but she runs really well. It's about time for a Hondaman ignition.

She won't win any shows, but she'll turn a few heads....

I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!
