I was actually trying to forget mine...

1984 Vulcan 750 frame with a 1981 Seca 750 motor in it. It was THE original Frankenstein bike.


The gauges were digital (

) and off of the Seca. Gas tank was Vulcan.

Seca was a good bike.

hmmm...yes they were. Are.

Still dunno about that bike, though. THe shaft on the Vulcan was cut, as was the shaft one the Seca.

The two were welded together to produce a decent running bike.

Lookin back on it now, that prolly wasn't the safest bike I was on.

My first streetbike was a 78 GS750E That I traded my 69 VW squareback for straight up my Junior year of high school! wish I still had both of them. That old 750 was the coolest looking bike around back then.

Damn Paul...did I miss that you'd custom painted it...looks a lot different than the one I saw last October!!! Nice!!!

 

[GMbusa]

Yeah, i finally painted my bike. This is just part 1 though. Later this summer is when the paintwork is gonna get wicked. Flames, skulls, multicolors, you get the picture.
