Hi Everyone,

I just picked up my first Seca yesterday. It's a 1993 with 25k miles on it. This is my second bike; my first being a 1986 Radian.

The jump from Radian to Seca was definitely interesting. I initially sold the Radian because I had bought it on a whim and wanted to take my time looking for the right bike. That's not to say the Radian wasn't an amazing bike! It was definitely quirky though. I almost went with a 77 GS550 but the lack of "modern" controls really got to me. Plus it was heavy!

Found this beauty and I picked her up. Plastic is faded, sprockets will last through the year, and front seals will need to be addressed, but everything else looked/felt great!

It needs an oil change though. The PO had mentioned he would take the headers off to get to the filter. I looked at it and couldn't see why. Is that common?

Here's the 1986 Radian. I hated the purple so I plasti-dip the tank and fenders. Turned out pretty nice!
