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

The red/white/black really works for me.  Maybe I need a new project......

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

What was the bike that originally had that red-gold-black scheme?  Always loved it.  GPz maybe?
