Yes I was planning on squirting the bracket... I was looking at that poor cowl frame and the messed up paint and heat marks... I never expected that bike, dumped in my garage in a box, all burnt up, would turn into this. So no...I haven't been painting stuff as I went along. I had found out that the son dumped it here so old "Pops" would have something to tinker with. Well, no one was expecting it but when it started coming back together...and ran...and started looking pretty...and your in-fills went on and gave her a touch of class. This is the overall badist bike I ever owned, and always regretted selling her, hell man the bike and I both earned our "broken wings". So seriously Mike, to answer your question...I'm going to paint that bracket and someday I might pull that sub-frame and paint it too, but I won't paint that tank, the blue needs shot too I believe.

On Friday I bought this 1993 vfr 750. Unbeknown to me, it's a 4th gen 93. I love the sound of that V4 singing And the raspberry pearl black is perfect to me.

That's pretty cool. Nice job. Def unique.

Smush for the win! Nice.

Too late... smush it. You don't lose any strength in the same plane and it's a much nicer install. Plus flat on flat is a better engagement to hold it's position. Maybe there's a machine shop near you that will let you have 5 minutes on their press. But if you have a big enough vise and a torch, it will go easy.

that's 24 years old??? I swear I bought my '98 brand new just a few... uh... shoot, that was a little while back, wasn't it.

The last MC show in the NW part of the country was I think in 2014. At that one, Honda did not even have the then new 8th gen on hand. When I asked the two Honda reps about it, they looked at each other and shrugged. Things have really changed.
