Good eye nick, its actually a '96 RM80. Bought it cheap with a burned top end and leaking water pump. Fixed it all except for carb and front pads. If you look closer, you might spot my first 2 wheels sitting on the shelf. One day I will put it back together, or use the engine in another project.

@Fox. Take some time and research light fixtures. You can get them cheaper, but they use sub par or outdated ballasts. I chose these because they use an electronic ballast, guaranteed to light and not flicker down to 0 degrees. The other fixtures use the older magnetic ballasts, that tend not to light under 60 degrees, and create a lot of interference and bleed over in cell signals and radios. That won't work for me, as I have pandora streaming anytime I am in the garage, and will likely be working in the garage throughout the winter, if I can a decent heater.
