RVF Project Rebuild
Posted: Mon May 27, 2019 10:47 pm
Hey folks.
Been a while since I uploaded any info on my projects, think my old threads are actually gone!
So I've been lucky enough to become the owner of an RVF.
The older forum members will know this bike and its owner
Unfortunately the time came for Mo to let it go, but I was able to use all my brownie points and bring it home.
So laid everything out to see what I had
Built it all up into a roller to make it easier, came with set of new panels too
Started rebuild proper this week, new headstock bearings and exhaust gaskets, fitted the 17" rear back on too.
Plenty of work ahead but looking forward to giving some life back to this.
Has some nice parts, RLR SP system, HRC spec carbs & HRC cdi too.
In due course it'll get lots of TLC and attention, hopefully get back to its former glory.
History starts as a race bike in Japan, bike was a podium finisher at the NorthWest 200 back in the day so be great to hear it roar again !
Watch this space for slow updates
