The pipes I had on the bike were from a 1982 honda 450 NightHawk they slipped right on. As it's so hard and expensive to get stock looking pipes I'm think of seeing if I can get these chromed; they are at least honda, they sound good and I like there looks better then the stock ones (oh no! hearsay.)

These picture's bring up a coupla questions I hope someone can help on. The seat is in pretty good shape, some rust on the springs, but it is stained; what can I use on the vinyl to clean it, also it has a little paint, will paint remover harm the vinyl?


The turn signal's I got from a Honda 90 trail years ago, are they an option on the 90's as most of them had separate lights on stocks; trade for a set of Dream ones;-)

Hey, Clarence....the story with this bike is that a young man purchased it in 1968, went into the Army and never came back? And it's been in the garage ever since?

You didn't happen to see a Corvette under a tarp or an E-type Jaguar under some old blankets in that garage too, didja?

Sorry about the post the other night, I was feeling cranky, mostly from my own ineptitude at finding things on a search.
