RVF400
I've bought this recently.
It has an after market fairing on it which although painted reasonably well is painted in the wrong colour. I'd like an original fairing in RR colours which is what my bike is as a '94 model. That can wait till winter though as I'll enjoy the bike during the summer.
The exhaust is rotting through but again will last until the end of summer before being replaced. I'll try and find a good stainless replacement but will try and find something with a bit of a fruity end can on it.
The rest of the bike is reasonably ok but will be semi stripped, cleaned and rebuilt during the winter.
Been after one of these for quite a while but finally decided to take the plunge as one came up at a good enough price that I couldn't refuse. I've been searching through here for about a week now but no doubt I'll have loads of stupid questions to ask sooner or later.

Re: RVF400
Your bike looks very nice, the colours arent bad to be honest! I cant really help with where to get the new fairings from tho but I am sure someone on here can point you in the right direction when the time comes.
As you say tho, use the summer to enjoy the bike, I am sure you will :D
