90 N2 Returns Home

#1 Post by silverstrom » Wed Nov 04, 2020 12:20 pm

Some of you may remember this bike from several years ago. This started as a spare frame I had. The build was started in 2013 and I was riding the bike in 2014. After a few rides and having put less than 500 km on the bike it was time to move on to something else and the bike was sold in 2015. In August 2020 I bought the bike back, with it accumulating less than 1500 km over the 5 years it was gone.

Thanks for the kind words guys. It's appreciated.

I still haven't ridden the bike since getting it back here. Weather was just awful. Hope to get the chance over the next few days before it snows again.

Feel free to stop by and take her out Nunzio, or anyone else!

What they all said :smt023 :smt023 :smt023

Excellent build.

Is the silver paint "paint" or decals?

Thanks Jon.

That solo tail is from Glyn. I bought the mould from him.

I do have a couple of Vin's RZ500 solo tails here.

The silver is decals. I had Mark at RDdecals.com make them for me.
