and if i can i'd like to second b82ta.

Thank you, I accept... It has been a fun journey restoring this bike.
Heck, I rode it to work yesterday and it continues be my dream bike.

i like the way you incorporated the directionals/blinkers/winkers and color matched the boxes.

[Really?]

The bags are what caught my eye.  I like baggers as I guess y'all can tell.  These work well on this early version of the bike.  And it is clean too!  It is well done in my eye.

[b82ta]

I am honored to have been nominated!  Here is a link to my build thread, its not the most complete by any means....

I love this bike, and it continues to be a great project.  We've been through some tough times, ie getting knocked over once, then seriously  knocked over again... backed into.... massive oil leaks...

upcoming plans include correcting a bit of remaining tank damage from my roommate backing it over    a head rebuild/port, and a hondaman ignition.  

[tweakin]

I will second b82ta's.  I have a soft spot for F's.

alright, alright.

[zzpete]

I nominate zzpete's Valley Green Metallic K1, maybe he won't sell it then! It's a stunning bike. He painted it himself too!   

Thanks Carbine, I had a lot of help from a pro friend of mine. Next one I do it will be totally solo.

Is this the ride nominated?


That is one nice bike, Love that color!!!.. (made it my wallpaper.. )

In all fairness, this is a shot of Vic World's hub. I was comparing finishes to my NOS.
Honda's original finish, has beautiful features or polishing flaws in all the panels and covers.
This one is mine.
