357: It looks like the RWB bike except that she painted it in military woodland camo. The fairing had a lot of broken parts on it some was held together with string. She has two other parts vtr's.

Despite being camo it everyone comments on it.


I have another oldie The Honda VFR750. I get in the mid 40s as far as mileage goes.

We also have matching Yamaha 500 singles that generally do well, in the mid 50s. We ride them occasionally. My 58 year old wife gets a kick out of starting them before she gets to ride. They don't have an electric start. She is catching "air" on the red one. She is 5'2" and the bike has a 31" seat height.



Most every thing we drive is vintage.
