That was a funny picture to me as well. Just a couple days ago my Kerker was dangling from a cedar tree in my front yard as I gave it a new paint job. Couldn't help but think of Billie Holiday... Strange Fruit...

Got out on the '02 CB-900F. It's Grand Dad is a Classic from '82. We just have to wait a few more years. Shake down cruise after doing chain lube, etc. l have it set up for 'solo' touring as it sits. I'm heading over to Falkland for Lunch at the "PUB" at 1:30 pm Tomorrow, Tuesday, March 17. Anyone from the group that can get away for a few hours is welcome. I need a longer highway run to see how my modifications will work out.

Well done Ron.
Try to avoid the top heaviness. I see a lot of stuff up high on it. Don't want to build another Concours.

I like it!
Looks like a perfect fast/light weight solo sport touring setup.
The top box might be the same one I have on the VFR....maybe one size smaller, but the backrest and rack are the same. Nice unit.
I am sure you are going to love that rascal.

My Kerker up for another coat of VHT.
While in Victoria last week, my buddies conspired to set me up with a pair of S&W Street Strokers. I've been looking for these shocks for quite a while and I couldn't believe how nice they turned out!
Before
After
And best of all, they work beautifully! There aren't any issues with leaking seals and they ride much nicer than the stockers!
A huge thanks to Trevor and Rob (azr). The beer is definitely on me when you guys come up for a visit!
