New toy, older look
« on: August 04, 2011, 05:30:14 AM »
A while back I purchased a crashed 94 CB1000 (the Big One). While I was fixing it I realised that I didn't like the plane Jane original black paint.
So I decided to experiment; behold the Big One with circa 1982 Bol d'Or stickers.  ;D
I don't know if it looks good but at least is shinny.  :)

It's fun to ride. Not too fast, only 100HP. Weights as much as a WWII panzer, ultra smooth engine.
When I park there is always somebody making a comment: I didn'y know they made watercooled Honda's in '82.  ;D
