Re: Bofud's bikes
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.

Re: Bofud's bikes
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.
