Decided to get something quick and good on fuel - so I've gotten back into motorcycling after a 5 year hiatus.
This is a what it's supposed to look like:
700cc, six speed transmission, shaft drive, made by Honda - what's not to like? I've wanted one since, well, the 80s, and when I saw one in good mechanical shape I jumped on it.
However, since I'm getting mine for $500 as a project, it needs quite a bit of work, starting with the hideously planned, ugly looking but surprisingly well executed paint job:
Fortunately, I've located all the parts I need to fix it, including the seat, for cheap.
