Honda VFR800 2002 Updated
I gave him a second life! I bought this handsome at all in poor condition. The previous owner fell into an accident and left a motorcycle to rot on the street. Exactly 10 years old, he stood under the snow and rain, all start rust. But I was sure that I can give him a second life and revive him. Exactly 6 months while in Russia goes winter, I went to the garage and restored it. This year was the first season on it, now I go and rejoice.
P.S. Sorry for my English.

2009 KLX250SF Updated
Surely that SF means San Francisco...
Picked this up in 2020 on a whim, eventually found some dirt wheels/tires for it, and use it on the street, off road, and SuperMoto. It has turned out to be a total hoot.
Just a few mods

1990 Honda CB-1 Updated
This is my 7th and likely last CB-1 (nicknamed CB-7). I bought it with about 11k miles in 2020 and sold the one with 30k+, moved all of the goodies and plan to enjoy it for years to come. It needed a lot of attention after being neglected for years.
Resprung and revalved forks Fox rear shock Custom solo seat Hepco and Becker rack and (much too big) case (this is a terrible product and a company I do not recommend) Custom rear set plates Clip-ons Custom frame sliders Windscreen (I have one of each of the three made for this bike) Cheapo Asian levers and mirror extenders Reran the fuel plumbing as the stock tubes aren't available anymore. It involved beer making parts...from kegworks.com

Swapped over all of the goodies!
VFRness and Ricks R/R Penske shock and Thermosman forks (raised the rear and lowered the front GIVI Wingrack Sprockets Staintune Sargent seat Helibars
In love with the Roadsmart IIs on there and hope that the IIIs they will get replaced with are as lovely. 22k on it nearing the end of 2021.

VF1000FE and VF800FE (The old and the new) Updated
The oldest and newest bikes in the shed. The VF1000FE (1984) is the first litre size bike I ever owned. While not my original bike, this low km (20,000km) exsample is a keeper.
