Honda fever

Who knew Honda made such beautiful machines? It was fate that this 1973 CD175 fell into my hands. I first laid eyes on it in July and it blew me away, when I saw it for sale on kijiji I didn't hesitate to respond to the ad. Now I won't feel the need to rush the restoration to get it on the road first thing this spring. This bike is a little smaller and probably a little easier to handle than the Gold Star will be - great for learning on. Don't worry, the BSA will always be my first love. Although this is one pretty motorcycle.

We've been busy working on the house this summer, so no work on the bike since last post. By October you should see a lot more happening! I am sure it will be a long cold winter, meaning lots time for indoor projects.
