Depends how much it cost you ? And if you wanna make it tidy ? Looks mainly cosmetic work thatโs needed? ๐คทโโ๏ธ

To be honest I'd stick a different back and front end on it as an easy hybrid
Oh and the red seat doesn't go with that paintwork.
Other that that I quite like it
You got a pic from the front?

I'd go with a decent paintjob, change the seat cover, ditch the fairing and sort the clocks out. Get rid of the anodising and I think it would be a nice bike. Paint scheme aside, it looks like it's been cared for Dusty

I'm not too keen on them either
The actual pipe looks good but micron were lazy making them
The ypvs pipe is just an lc pipe with a longer hanger bracket to make it fit
Hated the 5.5k flat spot too but were screaming top end pipes. Revved to the moon.
Got new pairs of Gibson's and mutts hanging in the garage ๐

Back in the day around 1989 I bought a 1986 F2. I remember driving my mk1 fiesta to Stan Stevens and seeing a nice set of exactly the same Microns you have hanging on the wall. They made that YPVS much cleaner revving, with no flat spots at all. I jumped at the chance to get another set for my latest F2. Sure they are not really a performance pipe by todayโs standard, and look a little low slung, but as you said they do sound nice. Jon

Retro it, build a nice back in the day build . Whatever you build will no doubt be a good un. I would just do something a little different from the norm but thatโs me. Good basis though. Who did you mug to get it? Those R&R clocks look so dated now.
