RL-20II replica build...

got this FS880 off CL for $60.... since I sold my Blue Fit I decided to build this one up as a rider to look like a red RL-20II. I'll keep posting pics as I progress in the build.

I believe Jesus would have rode a GT Performer....carpenters can't afford Hutch.

While urinating, Chuck Norris is easily capable of welding titanium.

Driving a fast Honda is like coming out of the closet....sure it surprises you at first, but in the end you`re still gay.

For sure bro. I am almost thinking this will be an "inspired by" build instead of a by the books retro RL20II replica.

LOL! It was actually a couple of 12 year old kids. I show up and their parents are no where to be found. I don't know about you, but if some weirdo was coming to my house I definitely wouldn't leave my kids to fend for themselves.
