Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

They look like Buddy Club P1 SFs. Possibly a custom color?

With your taste in bikes I would guess something that actually looked good, not some piece of plastic junk...

Clean ITR, I'm not a big Honda fan unless they're done right.

I drive a swapped 2.5 RS

No pics but I've driven a 98 Cabrio for the past few years... my dream car is an R32 but my next purchase will probably be an anniversary ed. For now the bike is primary though! Starving student and all...

New project, 1989 Cabriolet. 1.8l JH, I've removed the AC, power-steering, and most of the interior. Now it's just a matter of putting it all back together. It does come with a sweet '89 only Helios striped interior. And the paint is one year only, one model only LD5T Starblue. Cool!
