Re: VFR400 Ground-up

It'll be for sale for $5, the second you win LRRS ROTY, Jim.

PS: The Frame / Swingarm got cleaned Sunday after the 848 went off to it's new home... Degsy, get some pics up!

PPS: Jim, your presence is requested at Degsy's Thursday evening.

No, but I'm going to make sure you and everyone else knows what an old "vintage" bike this is.

Re: VFR400 Ground-up

NOT chrome polish, just clean to look like new polish. This thing was a basket case boys.... I just want that gorgeous twin-spar frame and ELF swingarm to look as good as they can. No worries, I won't be "blingin" it out that way. I do plan a pretty cool paint job though.
