Yes it will look like a basketball court beside the house

Finished the bike stand today, Very Happy

Nice stand, but I like the bike better

Nice bike looks like a cb250 rs or xbr 500 engine?

Cheers yes its an 81 cb250rs café racer which I have built for the wife Now that this is mostly complete I've started on my next 1, 75 cb400/f bratstyle bobber

my inspiration


as it sits Now

Nice workshop and nice bikes i love the old Honda bikes i rebuilt a CB750KZ a few years back (make that 10 years ohmy time goes by so fast ) it took me over a year to rebuild and cost a small fortune and the engine was a bit of a lump i made a trolley to fit the engine in to and had the engine blasted clean looked great when it was finished. sadly i no longer have the bike its a long story involving an ex girlfriend lol wish i had kept the bike instead sadly no pics either but i restored it back to original spec. I have always fancied doing a CB900F but i just do not have the space any more. I used to have an xl 250 trail bike and the engine looks very similar on your cb250. I took the baffles out of the aftermarket Motad exhaust on the cb750 i rebuilt and had it welded back up without them lol it sounded fantastic and terrified car drivers at the traffic lights.

why haven't I enough place to have vintage cars or bickes???

Thanks, I've always loved bikes but not for a job, I love riding and working on them for enjoyment so I wouldn't want to spoil it by doing it every day. I switch between bikes an rc for the variety Also my wife likes bikes to but only to ride
