So its been a tiny bit slow, works been taking a lot out of me as of late so I havent had a ton of time/energy to throw at the ever increasing collection of bikes here, but alas, I continue to plug away!
The RD350 is off to its new home, owner told me he had several other smokers as well, along the lines of an RD400 daytona, RZ350 etc, pretty much every bike I want lol.
The r75/6 is nearing completion, been riding it around the "test track" at work, lots of fun, and sounds great. Had a scary situation with it tho, went to go fire it up, and forgot I hadn't adjusted the throttle cables, resulting in it basically reving up extremely high and trying to take off on me, very scary stuff
So little things left to do, gotta make up a seat for it, some fenders, get the gauge mounted etc, but it will soon be up for sale as well, although I'd really love to keep the damn thing, as my buddy just picked up a brand new R-nine-T, incredible bike, very fun and def has that similar air head "feel" that you get with an older bike like the /6
Here she is with my buddy's CM400, love his bike, hand polished tank that took him 4 agonizing days to finish, all the while with me saying "I told you so" when it comes to polishing, fuck polishing, too much work for me
Here she is with the Repsol's garage mate
Also, been working on some customer bikes too, co-workers son brought me his 07 Triumph Daytona 675 that he sadly ran off the road into a wash. Hes ok aside from some rash, and the bike actually isnt in too bad of shape, threw a new stator cover on it and had to hot wire the starter relay, but was able to ride it around, and seems to run and ride just fine. Awaiting on him to see what he wants to do about the other issues i.e cosmetics etc
Also did an oil change to this big boy, quite heavy and hard to turn which is to be expected, but incredibly fast, too much bike for me, I'm quite happy with my CBR
Will update with the /6 once I finish it, then its onto the big Yami i.e the 79xs750, and the lil Honda CL350, along with w/e else I dig up on craigslist
