Re: 1985 Kuwahara Exhibitionist

This bike rides sooooo nice.  It just has that old school survivor (but still damn clean) soul to it that's so hard to pull off.  Seriously this would be the cleanest rider at the ramp if it were still 1986, let alone 24 years later.  Everything on this bike just WORKS!  Serious props Joe.

Very nice! I must say yours is the only other '85 in my color that I've seen! Any idea how many they actually made in this color? Again, very nice build...
