A forum for stories, pics and updates of your resto's. Be it a barn find, Grampas hand me down or a bike being brought back to it's former glory.If you are restoring it, show us your stuff!
Well I am thinking I am going to do a stock resto on this one... Likely sell it... after I break it in, but who knows.. i tend to keep things
The only history I have on the bike is that A large military woman owned it, It was dry stored in a heated barn since 1995, it felt the sun and wind over its body for the first time in 20 years today, it kicks over, the front brakes aren't working, and looks unmodified other than the luggage rack.... which was wood on it

that A large military woman owned it-----hearing that is a first as a selling point.
Whatever I suggest here should be given ample time for a moderator to delicately correct. I apologize in advance.
