Posted by MoonArtistWearing a helmet is NOT going to save this man. The nut on his shoulders cannot be cracked, pulverized, sliced, chopped, diced and ground.
Sweet! Looks in good shape for its age, too. Have fun and you better wear a helmet 😄








Posted by ImarollinGood for you!
I had a four stroke dirt bike that looked similar. Fun on the sand trails, I freed horses once. Couldn't stop in time and ran through horse fencing and freed them all (all while not decapitating my own head)
I love bikes.

Have you ever wondered why the Americans and Japanese don't get along?
Here is a Japanese explanation of wiring color.

HEIGHT!! (you have to grunt it like a sumo samurai when you say it)
It's pretty much all there. Got a nasty ding on the right side of the tank.
The seat upholstery, though not perfect is quite remarkably in good shape for it's age.
Overall, the bike IS an decent shape for it's age but could be better.
At the present time, the old 6 volt battery is dead and needs replacement.
It may need a top end overhaul (as a perfectionist, I'd say it would need it).
It had seen an overhaul before, someone had epoxied the snot out of the cylinder barrel.
I think he probably had stripped the threads on one of the cyl. bolts and the excess ran down
the cyl. between the air-fins.
Because it is Obsolete in Honda's mind, parts have to be tracked down. You can't just find them
in every barn, let alone, on every street corner.
Once I get it up and goin' (not sure when), I'm not sure whether I'll keep it or sell it.
I REALLY like this bike for it "utilitarian" qualities. On road/off road. Saddle bag it and you
got a decent bike that's good on gas and go virtually anywhere (less big interstate).
For interstate riding, (keeping up with traffic)
I'd say a 500cc, 650cc, at minimum, 750cc and up to 1100cc are between perfect and
almost overkill.
In which case, I'd be thinkin either a Honda CB750, Triumph Bonneville or some variation of it, or an Indian.
otherwise this bike and an old Jeep CJ5 would suit my interests.

Posted by MoonArtistI don't know.

I didn't have any problem understanding the Honda wiring. Does that mean I don't get along with Americans?
Can't wait for it to be running and you having some fun on it. I vote for playing with it until you're wanting a bigger bike, then sell it and upgrade. Honda has the easiest to get parts, but Indian gets my vote. 😄click to expand

Posted by MrFirebirdI don't know. There's tons of cool bikes outGah... the struggle is real! I'd still vote for the Indian. ~psssttt~....wanna go bike oggling at the dealer? I PROMISE not to compromise your honor or take advantage of you. 😉

Posted by ReincarnationHe doesn't like me. I'm not saggy enough and I'm too much of a CA hippy liberal artist weirdo who annoys him with weirdo questions. 😛
MA and Firebird would make a good couple.

Posted by MrFirebirdI tried telling him, but I don't think he's listening.Posted by ReincarnationHardly.

Posted by ReincarnationHe's too conservative (and christian) and I'm too liberal (and very much not christian). We'd probably kill each other over politics while he throws bibles at me just because I pointed out some ancient history about the origins of religion or something, and then I'd be forced to sic the snow leopard on him, although it's a toss up on whether or not I'd have control of it or if it just did the attacking anyway, but either way it would be quite the rodeo.Posted by MrFirebirdDon't sell yourself short, Bird.Posted by ReincarnationHardly.

Posted by MrFirebirdI did NOT chase you! We were having loads of conversations about motorcycles and stuffs. I thought you'd have some great wealth of knowledge or interesting tidbits about shapeshifting, so be flattered I asked you, it's a rare thing. We were very disappointed that you didn't. How boring.Posted by MoonArtistYes, Rein, she kept asking me about shapeshifting.Posted by ReincarnationHe doesn't like me.

She's not the only one who's chased me around, here. Plenty do.
The problem with Cancer women is that they tend to be tooooo clingy for my tastes.
The problem with MrFirebird is he is a free man, set in his ways and quite the elusive, reclusive enigma, in real life.
Not much conversation and seriously, that's a problem for most all women.

Here you go....you can try this while waiting for the motorcycle to run. It has 2 wheels and will get you back into the swing of things.

Posted by MrFirebirdHeadturner 😄 Car porn! Doesn't look safe either though!

Posted by MoonArtistBack in 1969, the CB750 would come to be known as the first "super-bike", ironically.Posted by MrFirebirdDouble check the leathers and helmet (you know, that I mentioned earlier so you don't become dead.....mostly). So, you're wanting a crotch rocket now?Posted by MoonArtist
