It's a wonderful little bike, it must run again. Me and a friend just hit the road to have a Keroac-esque road trip adventure. I was on a nice heavy BMW, and he rode this Honda. I ended up killing my nice little beemer by abusing it, pressing it into motorcycle messenger service... but at least it was a fun job until I almost died [and the bike did die]. Decades later, the little Honda was also dead, but still hanging around in my friend's garage, so I volunteered to try to resurrect it. His wife just wanted it gone, so it worked out for both of us, and in the garage where I have it, my wife doesn't even see it, so it can sit there indefinitely... but it shouldn't.

Well good luck resurrecting it post pictures! I want to see.

I shall! That's a really good idea!

I so seldom take pictures of my projects anymore lately, and I really should, because somebody somewhere is maybe kind of interested. I wish my site I made about when I fixed this boat up was still up; maybe I can fix it... but I made it on a wordpress site [as kind of an excercise for work, as marketing tards were totally pushing for wordpress sites because they're not smart], but it was a pain in the ass and the database got all munged when I migrated to a better server... but maybe I'll pluck the images out of it and build a new one because that might make a cool post for whatever the boat related thing we have here is.

And all of the work on the cars I do is mundane, boring, and usually somewhat messy... But that bike! It's a lovable little thing, and it's very cool.
