Man of many talents ! I wasn't that lucky , did mostly Harley oil changes brakes tires, custom led frame lights. I think, if memory serves me right only one vf700c , service ..... I don't why we saw so few honda cycles ? But Harley's out the ying yang, lol, so you'll be down to just thu vf700c, not counting honda atvs And future projects ?

@ jay, you may or may not remember these bikes with these engines ?, but back in the day, Honda riders dubbed them '' flying V's '' because of the way the cylinders stick out of the frame.

they weren't the first shaft drive ?, the vf750c shadows had shaft drives back in 1982 I think it was ?, then the usa had the embargo crap take place.

Gold Wing was Shaft in 76. BMW's were in WW2.
The older CX's used to have rocker arm issues i believe?
Nice looking old Honda.
