I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it. -
Didn't take me long to warm up, I LIKE IT. Now thinking all the 1000G stripes were gold, I think, so OEM stripes won't work. Were there any other color stripes for the 850's? I can't picture any..., So custom stripes...UUmmm, let's think about that. Surely ya'll have something in mind??1983 GS1100E, 1983 CB1100F, 1991 GSX1100G, 1996 Kaw.

I like the color, too. Flashy, for sure. Are all those scratches on the Durango hood from putting metal gas tanks on it...?

Bodywork looks great, Chuck. Like the gold.
Blasphemy that it is Honda Gold but the '72 CB350 colour combo has been a favourite of mine.
