Put some fresh tires on it first!
Haha they're fresh, that's what 1 ride through a dirt road will do to sticky new rubber. Once the bike is on campus, I'll be able to wash it thoroughly without worrying about the dust immediately coming back ;)

So now that the cb500 is finished, I've turned my attention back to my 1965 Sears 106ss motorcycle. I just upgraded the engine in it to a rebuilt 124cc stroker motor. The engine makes 12hp and bike only weighs about 210 pounds. This thing flies!
