PIcked it up today, 1989 model, Dream Machine paint, nice little project, had an accident with a pedestrian apparently, the seller seemed like he was hiding something, but i thought what the hell, its cheap!

Things to do:

Replace Alternator
Replace Front Tyre
Downpipes (maybe just gasket as its blowing)
Fix Horn
Service Oil/Filter and Plugs
Spray Front Fairing
MOT

If ANYONE HAS ANY OF THESE BITS PLEASE PM ME!!! THANKS!

Was thinking to spray the front black with red on the side bits, so it blends in, what do you think?

most people think its silly to put lucky strike on a honda (its usually seen on a suzuki, as you guys have pointed out) but the F1 hondas were sponsored by them too, so its still ok on a honda imo Smile Think im just justifying it because I actually like it, and cant be bothered thinking up some fancy paint scheme for it.
