If my BaT comment, "Re-Spray. 100%" does not get approved, I will re-word it to be more diplomatic. But buyers need to know this is NOT...
Maybe I should be a hired gun / consultant for Auction bidders. Might be something there.
100% respray. And I can prove it's been dropped hard enough on both sides to to fuck up the upper cowl. So many tells on the paint job.
There are some things that don't seem right on this bike. I will do a deep dive tomorrow maybe. But the first couple things... New owner...
This time, let me look for some Honda clamps for you.
Hah! Only cuz I live in Western Washington, but... it's "Everett", not "Everette". :)

Just a couple doo-dads to finish up. Still have a brake side wheel dust seal to install. Be here at the end of the week. Thought for sure I had...
Thank you both. I'm pretty enamored. Can't wait to roll out in the sun... and eventually ride it again.
And a starter Upgrade Kit for a stock VFR... [ATTACH]
