It's a Special Kit for me. I'm driving the big brother a Honda VF 750C Magna. Unfortunatly there is no kit for this Bike. I stumbled upon this smaller version of it a just have to build it. I did take some extra time to build it. Don't want to rush and ruin it.
I'm really happy with the result. I would build it a second time. Just to get a little bit crazy with the painting.
