Thumbs up

Thanks guys. It was a long 3 weeks of hard work (sanding, epoxy repairing, un-rigging things, and lots of research from here about the bike. Thanks again forum.

A quick question I have (dont know if to post here), do the hurricane 600 rims fit this bike? I like the look of the more spokes and the next thing on my list is to chrome plate the rims and brakes or to have them powder coated the honda gold color.

Now, would the 600 rims in 17inch fit with out mod, or do I have no choice and have to use the 1000f rims? I know I have seen it somewhere here a 1000F with the 600 f3 spoke wheels.

Thanks, your time is appreciated

600F1 rims are too narrow at the rear - only takes a max 150 tyre. Stay with the 1000 rims or maybe VFR rims may fit (I don't know) - ??????

How come you didn't keep the fin on the tail? I'm sure that was good for an extra 5HP. Awesome find and nice work.
