Post a pic of your Airhead

Welcome aboard Bil. We're riding pretty much the same bike, down to the Brown's side stand.

Where did you score your tank cover? I haven't seen any like it for years. I have a not-so-pretty big tank that it would be the perfect cure for.

I found it on eBay. I think it was made by Mustang. I have a nice toaster tank underneath but I like the cover to protect it plus I like the look.

Looks like you have a Havana Gold color on your R75/7. I am just finishing up another one like yours. It had been in storage for 20+ years.

1991 R100 cafe project out for a spin

Sun came out on a Friday afternoon in the PNW, so I played a lil hooky from work, finished bleeding the front brakes, slapped the plates on and took her out for the first spin after the rebuild.....loved the sensation when you hit the gas and your butt presses back into the cafe seat pocket...this baby is fun to ride!!
