Hey, gammer has people to play with!! There's a few of us around. I've gone on a few rides with ak85lp. In fact, we are supposed to ride down to the rally in PA together. But the more Ontarioans, the merrier. |

Welcome to the group, ride safe.
Is that an OEM color for that bike? Or perhaps a non-US color? I don't recognize it.

Welcome to the Forum!  Bike looks great, take care of it and ride safe.  Looks like aftermarket exhaust you have there. My thoughts exactly...I'm very curious about it. Maybe details and a movie of it running so we can hear it?  |

Thanks for the comp's!...I basically trailered her home with out a test ride, just started up via direct gas line (intervenes)....loved the sound, started to purr after 5min. The owner a bike mechanic, sync'd the carbs, new battery, new front tire, new chain and rear sprocket,.....I took her for a rip just b4 this pic....wow....just love the sound, the nice clean pull...than u can scream it higher rpm,....insert huge grin here....yes the stance...n sitting stance is perfect for me with those bars....can't wait for warmer weather. More pics to come.

I do believe this is the original colour as I seen it written up a few times....maybe just for Canada though?
Gotta say it's in pretty good shape for an '82...

Honda specs that I've come across...'82 says black and blue....'83 says black and wineberry red... Stamped on the neck says '82?. From the DMV paper trail this bike has a long history...maybe someone switched out the body?...not sure. |

Cool bike. Love the exhaust system. Details? Can't find any markings, model, name or anything on the exhaust. But will get some sound clips of it soon. Gotta say, the pipe pretty much sold me...sound and looks. |

Nice bike Diabs, as Gammer mentioned we ride together a bit and hope to see you on the roads somewhere soon. I have an 82 as well but ours is a 650. Never seen a 750 before up close.

Who knows what year the engine could be  |

Ran the VIN and the frame is a '82....and engine checks out too!....now on to some cleaning along with oil change... |
