New Member Introductions / Hello from California! #1985
« on: July 29, 2014, 10:32:08 am »
Hello everyone, just picked up a garage found sandcast #1985 frame with #2050 engine. My name is Kevin and im from southern california. This is my first expierience with an old model honda, but ive been working and riding motorcycles since I was young. Im in the business of restoring and modifying newer hondas and harleys and creating bobbers out of them; but Of course that will not be the case with this gem! My father came across this 69 in an old mans garage while he was remodeling his house. The bike hadn't been touched in 28 years, ever since the guy became too old to ride. He bought it originally in whittier, Ca and it currently has 44k on the odo. We decided to offer the guy some money and over a week of haggling and turn of emotions, we were able to take it off his hands. Currently we have it pretty cleaned up but we havent even tried to turn the engine over, i didnt want to risk harming anything until we figure out how gummed up it is. The entire outside is very clean, although covered in a layer of grease, oil, and dog hair lol. It has every single original part except the exhaust  :( but anyway, heres a few pics. The first one is how we found it, then as we started cleaning it up.
