I was almost considering Minden for a day run

 

I’d be up for a day run.

 

I'm working this Saturday and should be done and have Sunday free. I won't know for sure until Sat. night. Anyone free Sunday?

 

won't be able to this weekend

 

no

 

Black Loop again, is your driveshaft ready for round 2? lol
We can organize Ganaraska run in November for everyone, group runs will offer better raters if we call them in advance.

 

So apparently I own this now...

Who rides and what do you think?
I've never even sat on a bike. 16000 km on it
Got it for about 10 hours of work. I'm planning on doing something like this to it.

I love the cafe racer look.

 

Your gonna self identify a Honda with a Zuki? Lol

@over60 some input here?

Nice acquisition dood

Edit: closer inspection shows a Zuki.. maxi me culpa!

 

Good place to start would be getting M licence?
Congrats! Bikes are way easier to work on, just don't send it to a no go hole...
This is my style tho:

There's a few Ural guys on here. MT pilots to boot

 

I see Urals quite often up north here, masterpiece in a motorcycle world. Drove it first time when I was 5, good memories... Plan to buy it one day here too.

 

Up til a few years back, there was one on my street. Now is just a neighbour couple doors up with a 54 Harley in mint.

 

Those look sick.

 

I rode the 650 version of that bike for a few years ,look in pretty decent condition, should be a fun project. I ride a Honda VTX 1300C now

 

Damn nice deal forsure, i want another bike soon. Need to get my M next year before it expires

10 hours? I couldn’t even afford you for one hour leo

 

Nice bike dude. Had a CBR600 for a few years and rode that thing daily, rain or shine. I miss it a lot.

 

Nice start for a project, looks really clean!

I posted my current bike last one I have left. Now you can see what got me addicted. I had a bike addiction for a few years after I learned I loved riding. Fell in love with an older style enduro bike Yamaha XT350. Had 3 of them when I decided to change to the truck, sold them all in 1 kijiji sale. 2 Perfect runners and parts bike I had already harvested a bunch from. I was getting a little carried away and decided I should get out while I still can.






I had this bike setup, rack system could hold everything for days of camping and riding I loved it.

Leo you are not the 1st guy I have seen flood an engine. We went on a multi day adventure met up with another 2 guys in parry sound, my buddy thought this was just a puddle like the rest we had seen for 20 minutes at the start of the morning day 1.


His little Yamaha 250WR did not like that!

Most of day 1 was spent changing oil several times at cnd tire parking lot.

 

There's a lot you can do with bikes like that.
I had a 79 CX500, sold it last year.

 

I have an 82 XT250. They are good bikes.

 

Nice bike...Great price. That's worth 3-4 Grand easy, if passes safety. Get yer M lic. and give her a try... what yr. is it?

At a quick first glance, I thought it was a Goldwing, like my old 1982.


The 'ole lady forced me to get the ultimate "couch rocket", due to comfort. Being an old guy, I went for it. 110,000 Kms later, we seen most of the states and Canada.....
