I had the last post in the old thread too. That's even more weird. Here's a repost...
I think I'm starting to get the motorcycle bug again. I want something simple, cheap, and comfortable. I'm thinking something like this: 1983 Silverwing 650cc new battery. I really like those old Honda transverse v-twins. They are nearly bullet proof.
The newest Honda we have is a 1978, but hubby loves them. Parts are relatively easy to find on Ebay and through a few suppliers. I think we have an extra motor or two sitting in the man cave as well just in case we happen to need one. I know we picked the one up off of Craigslist for $75 and there is nothing wrong with it.
We seem to have parts hanging all over the garage walls and in crates...things we may need at some point. This is how we end up with more bikes. Some are bought for parts and some are bought to rebuild. At one point, he had 13 sitting out there. It was a good day when he announced that I should post some for sale! He is down to 6 I think.
