I love the color you picked and enjoyed watching the restoration from a rusty mess to one of the nicest bikes I've seen. You gave me inspiration and hope! Good luck with it.
Thanks a lot!!! I had loads of fun building it and I never thought it would turn out as well as it has. I'll deff be out in Daytona and Downtown DeLand has a great show too, check it out!! And good luck with your dream too.

Took the bike out to Main Street, Daytona Beach one night for Bike Week, got lots of looks. I love hearing peoples Honda Storys!!!

This is a picture taken in my back yard with my new pipes and mufflers that I picked up at the Vintage Motorcycle Show in NSB during Bike Week.

I was going to ask you if you made it! I bet you had a blast. We were planning on going and hubby got the flu on Friday and was a mess all weekend. Guess there's always next year.
