I have an '88 750 F1S, owned since '01. Last rode it in '08, when the trans input shaft bearing failed  Took a while to get around to fixing it, mostly due to financial constraints!  But, I'm getting close...

Forgot to say, thanks to my pal JT Pedersen at www.321-ignite.com for the photos. We took them at a local park. At one point the park workers stopped while we were doing the shoot, and I thought for sure they would kick us off the lawn. But they just went about their business and left us alone!

Took my F1 to a vintage bike show at the Gilmore Car Museum in MI last weekend. About 160 bikes in the show, 8 of them in the "other countries" (not USA, GB, DE, JPN) category. I got 2nd place  First place went to a beautiful unrestored 1955 Parilla with basically zero miles. Was a real museum piece, and deservedly the winner.
