History:

Looking to upgrade the Rebel, when I find this built beauty! A couple of towns away someone had listed this bike for sale at about half what they paid for it!
After going through the pictures I knew that I had found the ultimate cafe racer! A Vintage shaft-driven Honda that had been modernized with newer suspension, brakes, and electronics.
I tried to strap it down, but it fell over in the moving van on the way home! That bent the left foot peg and shifter, but I was able to bend everything back and get it riding again!
