Someone on here owned a pumpkin Bird, Fonzie?

 

 

That photo brings a lot of questions.  50th anniversary edition?  1200?   Does someone make mirrors with turn signals that perfectly replace the stockers?

There's a company that made a 50th anniversary 1200, they took stock bikes and modded them, I think it's in England.  That isn't one of them, unless the person modified/downgraded it after purchase.

 

I've seen several different mirrors with turn signals, no clue if the mounting holes line up.

I remember reading about the 1200 blackbird on the pommy forum many years ago,found this article about the bikes .. https://www.motorcyclistonline.com/vm-racings-179-hp-honda-cbr1200xx-fire-bird/

There was a bored out V&M special edition. They did some pretty sweet bikes including David Jeffries ass kicking Isle of Man R1

Stan's Rig.  Wonder whatever happened to that old Genius?  He hasn't chimed in here for quite a while.
