Kaziff got a lead on a 1986 Honda VFR750. The current owner was given the bike by his brother and has tried a few things, but he's not been successful. He would like to see the bike go to someone who can fix it up and re-activate it.
The bike has 60k-ish kilometers on the clock. Judging from the picture it looks complete but probably needs some fettling and faffing (from the image I can see that the throttle twistgrip seems absent). The carbs for sure need to come out for a cleaning and there will be more. Judging from comments on various forums, VFR's aren't the easiest to work on.
Recall that we already have 2 projects on the go and should not start on a third until the existing 2 are settled. The question for the group is:
-is it reasonable to take on another project bike--assuming that we can find storage for the time being?
-Do we have anyone in the club who knows a thing or two about VFR's?
-Could this person cast a hairy eye on this bike and give us an assessment? (the carbs especially) don't have a great reputation for being easy to work on.
Please provide wisdom and comments
Olaf
