Simply thought I’d put up a line or two about what’s occurring with the bikes round right here.
On Saturday Could twentieth my little Road Cub challenge from my final put up took a finest at school award on the 2023 VJMC Nationwide Rally. We had a good time on the rally which was held in Eufuala Alabama this yr.
A couple of months in the past I lastly acquired my fingers on a pleasant early Honda Dream. It is a 1962 mannequin CA77 It could really begin however wouldn’t idle or cost a battery. I went forward and put in a VM22 Mikuni carburetor on it and acquired it working nicely. The unique ignition change fell aside so I rewired it with a modem change and a strong state regulator – rectifier and now it’s extraordinarily dependable. Sooner or later I plan to deal with the cosmetics however it’s enjoyable to trip like it’s. It’ll by no means be purely inventory once more however it will likely be very good at some point. I’ll let you know extra when the time comes.
On the Quick Lane swap meet throughout Daytona bike week this yr I snagged this ratty previous Honda Interceptor to maintain my Royal Enfield Interceptor firm. It was filth low cost as a result of it had no title however after a radical carburetor overhaul and a brand new gas pump it ran adequate that it was value it to undergo the “barn discover” title course of. The paperwork lastly got here by means of this week so it’s time to get it secure and prepared for the street.
