    Awesome cruiser, one of the few cruisers I've seen that I wouldn't mind a spin on :D

    Here's mine, someone buy her!

    Finished at last, got out for a short spin this morn.. Need to get tax and a plate done up before I take her out for a propper spin.. Time to enjoy the summer before I strip it down over the winter for a damn good clean and finish all the bits I didn't get a chance to do this time..

    have you any pics of before you started restoring it?

    looks great btw
    Should have but didn't take enough. Here's what I did to it though:
    Resprayed tank and side panels with new decals from David Silver
    Sourced new 'preserve nature' decal for fuel tank cover.
    Replacement rear wheel, new brake linings and inner tube.
    New ( second hand ) front forks from eBay polished and resprayed by me. Did the seals with the originals but was a waste of time.
    New jets and float valves to carbs, retuned and balanced - still leaking petrol though - parts from David Silver.
    New front brake pads.
    New ignition coils plus plug caps.
    Replacement centre stand - secondhand from eBay
    Original Honda exhaust downpipes from USA which cost a fortune but can't be got anywhere.
    Tailpipe from eBay for £8 on a gamble. Gentle application of Consaw and lump hammer made it fit.
    Lots of rubbing on the aluminium bits with 1200 waterpaper plus metal polish followed by lacquer.
    Tinfoil + Water to remove rust from chrome -

    To be done:
    Strip and powder coat frame
    New front wheel
    Respray / replace, triple tree / clocks
    Take it for a long spin somewhere where they drive on the other side of the road.

    Jesus, what happened? you ok?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 513 ✭✭✭dMaN24


    Crashed into a car in front. Rolled of the bike into oncoming traffic. My helmet graced the front wheel, and my left foot was runover by his rear wheel.

    Bruised foot and broken clavicle. Been off the bike for almost a month.
    The bike will cost about the same to repair as i paid for it.

    And i can't sleep on my right side. :(

    Crikey! Wishing you all the best in your recovery.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,528 ✭✭✭copeyhagen


    broke my left clavicle last september playing football, had a really slow healing to it, its still sore now when i play matches. some people heal from it really quickly, i think sitting at home playing playstatioon with a boguey arm every day might have slowed mine!!!
