 :) Another multi "V" household... 8) I've just had an email from Wolf in Sarnia, Ontario. He informs me that he is daddy to another, near road worthy,  '82... 8) I'm sure picture's of the "new arrival" will be posted soon.

Congratulation's and well done Wolf... 8)

                   8).......TIGER....... 8)
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

'82 Vision, Pearl Orange finish, lots of up-grades!!!

Thanks for posting the new vision,NV---I managed to fry my camera by once AGAIN not shutting down the right gismo before disconnecting from the computer....sigh...so your posted pic will be the only one until I trundle back from the camera store...sheeesh.
I was thinking cherry red...but I'm actually starting to like the yellow. Ii's going to have to be repainted properly regardless. First to the mechanicals---major carbueration problems, the world's stiffest clutch, check the stator etc.etc....

If you have an accident on a motorcycle, it's always your fault. Tough call, but it has to be that way. You're in the right, and dead -on a bike. The principle is not to have any accident. If you're involved in an an accident, it's because you did not anticipate. Then, by default, you failed.

Right, that does it. It's going to be repainted. RED.
Seat too.
Does kind of match my hair, though.

At 10:30 this morning the SNNNAARRRLL of a reborn vision split the air in the  neighbourhood---the Flying Banana lives!
The carb that came with it had bad jets, leaked--got her running, but only on one cylinder--had another,untried carb from Harry's bike shop in Chatham,On--installed it, a bit of fiddling and WOW does she run!! Sweet sounding engine, no bad mechanical noises, just a nice ducati like snarl out of the can...boys,I think I got a good one...
Now boys...the name. Little Red if I paint her red...but the more I see the yellow the more I like it. Yellow Jacket is taken,she deserves better than ol'yeller....Ladies and gentlemen, introducing---the Flying Banana!
P.S. a big thanks to Kiawrench for the battery cable plans--made some up,worked like a charm,much better than the automotive kind.

                  8).......TIGER....... 8)

May no longer be politically correct, but how about "die Gelbe Gefahr"?   ;D

Nothing wrong with Flying Banana, it's "die Gelbe Gefahr" ("The Yellow Peril") that may have the negative connotations.

Am I Curious Yellow?   ;D
