I am SO glad they are far away.
PAIR delete block off plates. Made from the original hard line fittings and some old hex bolts. [ATTACH]
Anybody who owns a 84-85 VF500F and has some extra room should ABSOLUTELY buy that.
My high quality AGMs have been serving me pretty well and I can still find sales that make it attractive. At some point, I'll have to figure out...

Yeah looking good! I don't know if you knew this ahead of time, but I think you got kinda lucky on the gas cap. Those caps that fit the early...
Cooling system components cleaned and re-finished. O-rings came in today. [ATTACH]
