First bike: 1973 Honda 500
« on: March 13, 2009, 05:51:31 PM »
I got this on Monday for $100. It has compression and spark but no gas. I hope to get it running and add a new chain soon



I'm still considering what to do with it. I definitely need to repaint that tank. Does anyone know the color of the side plate?

That looks like a really good deal for $100.

Clean out the carbs and fuel take and lets hear it run!
