Even a good detailing won't remove the rust from some of the chrome...

My pops is! haha he's actually waiting for my roommate to get a new bike so he can buy his old shadow.

Bike looks good! This season i'm going to expand my models, still sticking with zuki's though. Last season was a learning experience, but i felt only comfortable enough going after gs5's. Hopefully will be getting an 03 gsxr600 with 7kmiles for ~1750 below book, clean it up ride for a bit the on to the next owner. hopefully..

Sold!  A kid at work was looking for a first bike so I gave him a good deal on the Shadow.  Off to the next project.  I have a 1980 GS550l and an old Yamaha Chappy in storage to choose from....

I'd love a older retro project bike. Alas, the dweebs around here with such bikes want "fully restored" type money for them. Then whine about the bike market dropping off.
