Really is just an experiment. The original exhaust was pretty damn hammered, but solid and intact. I wasn't gonna spend a bunch of time...
Crankcase covers. Sprocket cover is same color. [ATTACH] Bronze base. Dark Bronze Mist Metallic color coats. 2 coats of gloss clear.
Paint looks great. [ATTACH] Polished the pivot shafts and bearings packed with EP Moly Grease, with Bel Ray waterproof grease around the seals....
This VFR is the exact same type of splined connection, driving a shaft that happens to have a sprocket attached to it. The cush in the sprocket...
Goodbye 1992 collector box... [ATTACH] Hello, 1997 4-2-1... [ATTACH] Also, goodbye 5 pounds. 14lbs on the left, 9 on the right. [ATTACH]

OMG... that thing should not be over 2. Not even close. Crashed, scratched, corroded... wrong.
Sounds like a fairly decent fit, size and usage. VFRs are kinda heavy though. But if you can manage that machine in uneven parking lots and...
I'm obviously not selling... but what do you think mine is worth now? Rogue? Baz? sixdog? [ATTACH]
