jco, If you got it ride it!!!  Some people restore stuff and then either put it on a trailer or in the garage and just look at it.  For me if it has two or four wheels it is suppose to be ridden or driven.  Nice job on the resto.  Harry

Many thanks to all of you, I appreciate.
Actually the bike looks nicer on the pics than in reality (someone sprayed some matt black paint directly onto the frame and even the red color - also better on pics - is a bit disappointing). BUT, I like her as it is and riding her around allows people to discover a bike and name they have never seen or even heard of (there are maybe no more than 3 or 4 GTO/GTRs currently in France and back in the days, motorcycle dealers in Paris only sold a handful of Bridgestone of smaller capacity).
My children like her too which says a lot considering that they have never been fond of my previous bikes. Probably because 2 strokes feel and sound much faster !
Special thanks to srpackrat49 ;D ;D ;D for his lively performance
