I bought from towing company. They bought from Insurance company. All I know.

>I drain petrol to sell as Hi-Test 82 Octane on black market. I cover bike in blanket for 29 years. Somebody sneak under blanket, switch red decal 1990 tank for black decal 1989 tank. Maybe KGB?<

-Matching red seat to honor Putin.
-Off road sport tires taken from tractor left under blanket in wheat field.
-No record of stolen! No record of not stolen either!
-522 miles. Only ridden by little old babushka lady to gulag on Sundays. 
-Perfect bike for beginner* that doesn't know how to do basic maintenance.

First 4295 rubles takes it. No checks. Will be delivered by Nigerian prince for small surcharge.

What can this have to do with commies?

What can this have to do with commies?

The Bolshevik red seat. Looks like an 86 Interceptor 500 had to donate his pinko seat to his needy younger comrade.

Haha. Da.

I loathe any seat color that isn't black.

CB-1's were introduced as the Berlin Wall fell. But in the mid 80's there were lots of red seats to keep the Cold War hot. (and sometimes wheels) Barnes and Noble has a whole section of history books right next to the motorcycle magazine rack.
