Looking good. Except for the "dirt bike look" front fender. Fender needs a "lowering kit" |

That bike is absolutely gorgeous! I don't know if I would be able to sell if it was mine. |

Ever since I bought my first 1100F in 2011, I've been saving pics of bikes I came across.
Here's one I saved a while back: |

I sat there and looked at that photo for a long time trying to add up all the tasty bits.
I like it even more now. |

It is lovely but I can't stop staring at the gap between front tyre and guard. it spoils it. |

It didn't sell - there were problems with the auction and I still have it.
It's been a while since I've had a bike on the home page - thanks to whoever posted it .
As far as the front fender goes; when I built the bike originally, it wore blue and white '750 Integra' bodywork and I lowered that fender by simply re-drilling the fender mounting holes.
I can't recall if I bought the red fender NOS or lightly used but either way, I can't bring myself to drill holes in it - it's too nice. My only other option would be another fender and non-stock bodywork on an F is a no-no to me.
Besides, you can't even notice the gap when you're riding it |

Glad to hear it did NOT sell, hopefully that means you'll either get what you should out of it or decide to keep it
I showed it to my wife last night, she was impressed, maybe you should call her ?
It's beautiful !!!!!!!! |

I got a thing for the fender being right too, but that's the only flaw (if you can even call it that) on this bike. It's a real beauty indeed with great mods...I read you had trepidation Peter about putting it on Flea Bay....since you have had yet another problem, does this mean you're going to keep it, or are you going to go another route, and still sell it???? |

I have pics of it in the blue/white too. I never realized it was the same bike until now. But, I liked both versions!
Very nice bike. |
