Default Well it's not a Honda but it'll do

Since I sold my 1000F I've been riding my '91 F2 exclusively. I love it, it's an excellent bike and performs overall better than any bike I've ever owned. I have almost no money in it and it just won't break, it's perfect! ...except there is no way my wife will stand for getting on the back of it ever again. I was really surprised it was THAT different from my 1000F. I mean I know the F2 is physically smaller but it has a generous old banana seat and I thought she would make it work but it was beyond unbearable for both of us. She wanted the 1000F back. So I started looking for a Blackbird naturally.

Well you all know how searching for bikes goes. I wound up with something completely different. So anyway here it is:

I think it's got a good little spot there by the 600. It should fit right in with the Hondas.

Copper was getting ready for a service, makes it easy to get to the drain plug that way.
