MARYLAND TACOMAS

Welp, thats all great to hear!

i went back to school after taking the summer off to work constantly. Made decent money, sold all the motorcycles and parts, failed to find a DRZ400 up to my standards and in my price range Also....sold the cap, bought a soft trifold tonneau, and pop&lock (with codeable lock technology), got my first dings and scratches in my trd off road skid plate put in for a Toywerx grill also got a nice oem bumper and hitch (thank you Joe)....still have not installed it

Last spring i got a pile of stuff done.

 

You have been busy! Still looking for a DRZ?? Ill keep my eyes peeled! I actually just bought a 77 honda 550 last night, bought it just for the motor, but selling the rest, soooo that was bike #4. Im pretty well set for winter projects, so now its back to the truck!

 

Next on the list is wheels, headlights, tail lights, remove the chrome mirror covers, do some de-badge-ing, make another bed rail mount (for my axe)....if the leafspring recall goes through and i get new leafs... I may upgrade to bilstein 5100s in the rear and some sort of adjustable coil over up front.


What are you building in the way of a 550? Is it a cb550? I'm not much for the cafe racer style but it sure looks cool if you're into that kind of thing. I prefer those era bike stock with a set of pipes and some carb work.

 

Love my 5100's! Do it! and yours is looking the part!

Yep its a cb550, I built a racer/cafe last winter that I drive everyday, that a cb350F, this winter is a few cruiser/stock 550's!

The 350F



The 77 550k (engine donor)



The 74 550 one of the cruiser



The 71 500 ( swapped with a 550 ) current restoration

 

I love vintage jap bikes. I have a couple old 900 kaws.

 

Man i had kawi parts too... Great bikes gentlemen *hats off*

 

No what I would want to test is if you put a DE billing address and a MD shipping address do you get out of the tax.
