Yes it is very nice. Spokes it should have went for $2500+, thats my opinion. Such great attention to detail and not a thing missed.
Whats the next bike?

I have an agreement with a guy in Alabama to restore his 1954 Harley Hummer 165. I will let all know when that starts.

I have also started a slow "restart" of the Honda CA95 project that was cashed in to finish the CA160. So as soon as that story grows I will be reviving the thread "Building a Honda CA95 from scratch, where is the bike now?

Can't wait to see the 165 project. Can't recall seeing one of those ever run.

Well it's been 3 weeks since I heard from the guy with the Harley Hummer. I am beginning to doubt his intentions. I will let you know if it happens.

Take a Ride on the 68

I stumbled on a ride video I forgot about. This video was taken in Bowling Green, KY. A short ride on the finished 1968 CA160.

Here is another great pic. The CA160 parked next to a Veit Nam era fighter jet used in the same year as the model year of the Honda, 1968
