Lets see you Motobike

[PurpleMystique]

Here's what I picked up last week:

1976 Honda CB550

I already pulled the fairing and sissy bar off, and managed to get it to start today with some severe carb cleaning. Compression is low though, so I might be looking at a complete rebuild.

1983 Honda Nighthawk 550

Definitely needs a starter, and it will also need some wiring work - pushing the starter button causes the lights to come on no matter the key position.

Made me flash back to the 80's , BTW - which isn't really a bad thing in my eyes . Those were the good ole-days for me .

props again to parkedcar for the rebel flyer decals...my hero

 

[Buddy Palumbo]

I do love that bike -the coolest Rebel ever ! I thought maybe we'd see an updated P.P. pic though ...


I'll add this here ... my latest aquisition - a '91 Suzuki Bandit 400 .

I've got an even cooler bike in the works yet ... stay tuned !

 

[PeppermintPatty]

Nice Bandit! I wouldn't mind one of those either...please tell me it's not pink :laugh:

I can't wait to see what you've got up your sleeve...you've always got neat-o stuff

 

[deedum]

Haven't posted in a while, but here's my beasty

 

[PurpleMystique]

'Busa! Have you turbo'd it yet?

 

[deedum]

LOL, nah, fast enough for me. Too many speed cameras and undercover cops aswell

 

[PurpleMystique]

Ah, just saw where you're located. I suppose its stock form is more than enough to get you into trouble.

 

[deedum]

Yeah and you'd wanna be pretty mad to ride at 186mph

Ha ha - no , it's not pink - definately red . The lighting made it look that way though .

Yea , then next one will be more OG . Got the fuy pretty much nailed-down on price , just needs a bit more armtwisting . I was actually after this OG bike when the Bandit deal came about . The latest plan is that I'll ride the Bandit while I re-do the other (pertty big job) .
