That might have been the previous owner of my bike. Unfortunately you won't see it around the south island again until next summer, but by then it will be well on it's way to passing 100,000km on the odometer. It is a 1991 with 17" wheel conversion and 41mm FCR carb upgrade and Zorst "mufflers".

I had a set of those Zorst mufflers (?) on my 86 VFR750 (180⁰ crank ) and it sounded so cool .
I have Cycleworks exhaust on my Paso ...pretty much the same sort of thing without the butterfly .
