Time Stamp 11-20-10
The bike arrived today. Barn fresh. It has been sitting for the last 6yrs I am told.
After a nice hot water bath (need hot water as it is 28F)
One noticable flaw one muffler is damaged
The engine turns over smoothly ( loaded the cylinders with motor oil first) and there is some sheetmetal damage. The tires are bad, speedo broken, seat is trash, battery way dead, side cover screw is gone and the handlebars are bent. But $203.00 for the bike and $300.00 to ship makes it a good value and very restorable. The fuel tank is sound as well. Back to thinking about color. I have to say I like the Honda Red.
