^^^ Very pretty R. Very nice. The first photo looks like you built your yard around your 850 
.
Original 17"s, or reconditioned because of cracks, or aftermarket clones?
I lived in Seattle for 8 years and never put a front license plate on. Then I move to Denver and get 3 $30 tickets in 6 weeks for it, all in the same spot by the same meter reader
. I capitulated and put a janky non-drilled solution together to hold the front license plate on. Looks like crap, stopped the tickets.
I fought the law and the law won.
Here's my 850 in October.

Ha, no the car gate swings open...Most wouldn't catch that detail, guess the fence caught your eye more than my 850..matthew1 wrote:^^^ Very pretty R. Very nice. The first photo looks like you built your yard around your 850

the wheels are a combination of original and clones, you can see the front wheel is a different shade than the rear.
I know my 850R does not do well in the snow with these wheels and tires. I'm sure 16" with snow tires would be better in Denver.
Just turned 140K, time for my second timing belt change..Damn I've had this car a while..I remember when it had 26K.850 Turbo1 wrote:atefitty wrote:My slighly modded 1997 850R..It's been a great car, great power with the ECU upgrade from IPD, CJ's custom downpipe and Sport Exhaust from IPD.
