ITSSLOW's 1983 Honda CX650

[ITSSLOW]

I know it isn't a Katana but its a bike of mine I've been working on.

I got the bike dead stock after it sat in a buddies garage for a year because he couldn't get it running. He ended up giving the bike to me because he thought it was pretty much scrap! That's a $250 savings over what I paid for my Katana!

Wow, nice custom work there.

Thanks everyone. The Katana is going under the knife next. As a matter of fact, I'm going to tear off my gauges and head light in about 10 minutes.

nice bike speed is not everything style counts for at least half of the cool points!!!

Love it. But i am biased. I love old Hondas (have owned about 12) and I love cafe racers/bobbers (owned 6)

Nice. What did you end up doing to get it running?

Rebuilt the carbs, oil change, new plugs, and new battery for a tune up and replaced the engine kill switch that was bad. Took me all of 15 minutes to figure out what it was. The guy isn't exactly a mechanical genius.
