The bike as it will look from now on.
I finished the undertail, using the stock inner fender. I'm using LED license plate bolts for lighting.
This will also be the paint configuration for the solo seat cover.

A Little about me
- Wheeefr
- Fort Collins, Colorado, United States
- I've ridden off and on since 1971. Off while raising my family, on when they grew up, a little in between whenever I got the chance. My roots are in dirt riding and Trials, only lately on the street with my 1994 Honda VFR. I now also have a 1993 Kawasaki KLX650C1

VFR Design Direction
With the purchase of a relatively inexpensive VFR that badly needed paint but little else, I decided to have some fun, go in a different direction and incorporate parts of some different Honda MotoGP graphic/paint themes. The fact that the bodywork on this bike was designed about 20 years ago restricts what can be done.
