Yesterday, DT Reader Cody commented on our Coffee Break that we should consider including some vintage motorcyles in our mix of posts. As it turns out, I try to keep an eye on a couple of bikes, and came across this
1986 Honda VF1000R
currently bidding for $3,500 in Coarsegold, CA on EBay with just a day left to go. This bike calls to me as I'm a huge fan of someone restoring and tweaking a bike to make it their own. Having ditched the original Red/White/Blue Honda livery in favor of contrasting blue/orange this bike looks decades newer than it is. The addition of a non-stock extended windscreen creates more of a highway appearance than its original proned-out riding position.
