Browsing Searchtempest this morning and couldn't resist this little Honda that is needing some love. I've kind of been on the lookout for a little bike that I can fighter/muscle out but they always seem to be gone or a hard to come by.
This will probably be next winters project and I'm going to have to restrain myself from spending money that should be going towards my GS. I'm thinking the normal GSXR forks and a Ducati Monster SSA to mix it up a little. Still not sure what I will do with the seat/tail. I'll have to do some browsing to see if I can find something that will fit the style.
He said he bought it for parts but didn't end up using much of anything on it. His wife insisted he didn't need a parts bike sitting around when he could ride his other two bikes. He mentioned it was missing a coil so my guess is it had ignition issues and after trying to fix it they couldn't get it running or just never got around to getting parts for it (crossing my fingers).
