Ah, poor old Sprock, getting his helmet mocked again !
He's younger than I remember but Botox will do that for ya I'm told

BTW Trout, back in the 90's a guy was killed, name of Jeff Zack, shot with a handgun from a bike exactly like yours. Killer rode by and whacked him at a traffic light, then bolted. Was caught later and is doing life. Maybe you should test earlier title on your bike - may have a bloody past....

Well the light on top of that helmet might come in handy when riding at night.

What's funny is I looked this story up last night and found out that after the hit.....the guy ditched the bike in Pennsylvania!!! LOL...
He also covered the yellow bits with duct tape after the murder so people wouldn't recognize it......
Whole story was absolutely insane... big love triangle cover-up thing. A married woman was sleeping with the hitman and the guy he hit. Apparently the guy got shot because he was threatening to take one of the woman's kids off to israel with him! (because the one kid was biologically his and nobody knew it!!) Hitman walked right up to him at a gas station and shot him in the face and rode off.
Ya know, they never mentioned "Honda CBR1000F" through the whole story, though.... the detectives just called it "A black and yellow "ninja style" motorcycle" even though it was definitely my bike...
The wife actually bought the bike for the hitman..... just as a getaway bike! She paid $5300 for it back in 2001. Paper trail right to her....

That is quite a story. You could have the motorcycle version of Christine.

Well I always found the yellow on the bike a bit much with the gray and black parts. I like the 93 and 94 better.

They took the bike into Court and had it parked in there the whole time the case was being heard. Unusual......

March 21, 2007

Ninth District Court of Appeals, in a 2-1 ruling, says that there was insufficient evidence to convict George, effectively allowing her to go free.

Aug. 29, 2007

The Ohio Supreme Court declines to accept an appeal from Summit County prosecutors. Barring the high court's reversal of its own decision, George will remain free and can never be tried again. A wrongful death lawsuit against the Georges and Zaffino by Zack's family is scheduled for trial in November.

Money got her off, for sure. Guilty as sin.

Yep, that's what I'd say.

Certainly quite the story.
I'm a big fan of the 93 colors, but not as much the '94. Something about the white with the red/black just doesn't do it for me. Love the red on the silver/black.
I hate all the decals, though. Never been a fan of them. I think they make the bike look even more dated. (especially the "CBR" on the tail)
