I was trolling Craig's list about 2 weeks ago and saw this for sale ft500 Ascot,a week earlier I drove to Zenia Ohio to pick up a 1984 vf500ft, and thought why not its close to home about 30 min and it may have some usable parts well it didn't work out as planned. What do think

Still trying to figure if that's two different bikes.. The slightly 'patinated' bolt on the top left rear of the engine casing makes it look like it is.
If so - helluva job workdogz2

Unusual bike - round these parts anyway. A school-friend of mine had one when we were kids, used to be able to pull spectacular 1/4 mile long wheelies on it. Always made the rest of us feel very average.

Hope you enjoy that one!
