79 750F

Beekeeper
Spent a lot of time on and off the last 6 months fooling with this old girl.  Temp got up to 34 today, so I rode to a friends house.  He took a pic so figured I'd paste it up on the site.  Nothing fancy or creative.  Just another old F bike.

You don't need to down play her. She looks great and well maintained! Be careful riding her around all that snow!

That bike looks all of 3-4 years old...  I love that vintage of bike.  She looks fantastic.  Thanks for sharing the photo -- kind of takes me back to my teen's.  Cheers!

Hey thanks guys.  I have really enjoyed getting the bike back into shape and buzzing around on it. Always more to do, but that's half the fun.  A friend asked me when I was going to sell it so I could get a "real" modern bike.  May be striking a line through his name on my friend list!  Next up, gotta find some braided lines for the front brakes.  Originals are flexing.

I agree with everyone else,thats a super clean looking bike.The DOHC F's are just awesome looking machines. Honda hit the nail on the head with the styling on those.

Looking good man!

Thanks again everyone.  Supposed to be middle 50's Tuesday.  Usually means strong south winds in March.  But if not to bad, might climb on board and try to find some open water.  Those trout are awful hungry this time of year!  I also just got a go-pro camera I want to try out.
