Thanks Andy750 ;)
You are Free to use it, would be most gracious
to see it on your calendar. Was going to put on the
Motopak60 panniers but thought I wanted to show off
the bikes natural profile. I tell you this caravan park looked sketchy,
It would suit Texas chainsaw film location  :P all good fun.

Yes I did a 900F and am working on a '67 cb450.  powder coated frame hanging while I look for parts.

Nikkisix and I ride a few times a month, John just brought a K0 basket case back to life this summer and he has been wrenching for a locals.

He does not post much anymore.

I remember seeing threads on both those bikes now. That CB900F is sharp, very nice bike Mark! Now the Black Bomber your basically laying hands on it and bringing it back from the dead aren't you ;D Looks like it's still a work in progress ;) Hope you still have my K6 twin brother that you rode to the Rock in 2011. Those K6's are good bikes, I've had mine since 2009 and have nothing to complain about. Don't do what's considerd much long distance riding on it, but last year got a wild hair one Saturday on took off to the BRPW. Around a 450 mile round trip and she ran great and got close to 50 mpg :) Got to get a throttle cruise device of some type though because my throttle hand was getting tired and cramping up. Does Nikkisixx still have the KO project bike?

I never get above 40mpg on my K6  most of the time mid 30's  Jack rabbit starts would be my guess.  the 900 gets in the mid 40's even with keeping up to Nikkisixx.

I have a throttle lock on the Vulcan, allows me to stretch the hand to reduce pain but not much value for more than a few dozen seconds.

The 450 has languished, first because I got the 900 which caused me to put it aside "for a while" then because parts are just damn difficult to acquire.  That and I got tired of polishing and I am too cheap to pay anyone else for something I can do, :)

Considering we already have had a couple of dustings of snow, I don't think I will be able to contribute this year.

Very nice shots out there!!
