My 1984 Honda VF 1000 F2. Not released in North America -- basically a Vf 1000 with a fairing.

This is the scariest bike in my doghouse ,a real arm puller. I don't ride it a lot anymore. It is a very nice handling and very fast machine. Maybe some other members have experienced this carnival ride.

Found this one in Kent, Washington-- someone painted it with a brush (red) did every nut and bolt. My other 3 cyl 2-stroke.

All very nice. I especially like the 1984 Honda VF 1000 F2. I don't know much about it. It appears to resemble the RZ 500 in a lot of ways.

Here is the little T 250 outside. Amazing to me how popular these little bikes are at the motorcycle shows we have taken her to.

Hope you guys aren't getting sick of all these photos? Having trouble with my Photobucket account could not post them all at once.
This one has a history . My son was working at a acreage and noticed this bike which was under a canopy on his way out after completing the job. (Replacing a windshield in a Chev P/U) Turned around and went to talk to the owner what the story on the bike was. (Knows the old man-- me -- always wanting another project)
This is the story
3 people involved.
Original owner , Friend #1
Knows Friend #2 ,who
knows friend #3 ,where the bikes at , friend #3 does not know friend #1.
I hope i explained that OK. Re read it ,you will get it.
Anyhow #1 ,gives the bike for storage in 1997 to #2 for a while ?
After 3 years #2 calls up #1 and explains that he needs the room ,come get the bike.
#1 says ok to #2 ----- another 3 years go by----no show.
#2 --friend of #3 asks if he can store it at his acreage. OK for a short time.
#3 has the bike for - 9 years under the canopy.
#3 calls #2 and asks for removal of the bike. #2 after some more time ,calls #3 and tells him to take the bike to the DUMP.
Mean time #3 buys a quad---needs mirrors for the quad. knows noting about bikes and cuts the master cylinder and clutch perch in half . Cuts the throttle cables ,grips , brake hose and all the electrical for the switch gear, both sides. WOW!!
Thats how i got the bike. Only washed it,as you see it here .The next day i rigged up some wire for the switch gear and she sparked right up. Sounds awesome with the early Yosi pipe. A bike nobody wanted.
