...how I love thee,let me count the ways:

1- My '76 F
2- My '74 chop
3- My '80 F
4- My '78 K
5- My 1100F
6- My XR400R
7- My XL500S
8- yet to be brought home '02 CR250R

However...










































































I just got home with this lil parallel twin beauty




50+ ft/lbs of tq from idle to redline, 385 lbs full of gas and 3rd gear power wheelies at 60 mph ....  ...while getting 65+mpg ...  ... what's not to love??

This is now my daily. Now I can focus on finishing the shop and start building the CB1100F. Muscle Bike!

Hackjob may be finding a new home in exchange for me getting the CB1100F professionally painted.

I thought you learned your lesson on trading for paint work.

LMAO!! No kidding! And this guy is even out of State.

But he's a CB lover, so you know he's solid.

Unless he has one in the kitchen, and two in the living room, he is just fond of CB's.

Sorry, I just saw this. Updates on the FZ07? I absolutely love the bike. As always, I've made some changes to the bike ( I built a rear shock for it out of a CBR600RR), but I don't have any complaints. Compared to my old CB's it's cheap and plasticy, but that's to be expected. I mean, the thing squeaks when you sit on it.
