Theres an 80's(I think) Honda 600 Twin in my barn that has been parked for god knows how long. It was my half-sister's husbands bike, he parked it at her moms and she passed away not long ago. So when they moved all her stuff out, we got some of it since we have a lot of barn space. She told me he's not going to do anything with it so I could fix it up and ride it if I like.

I really want to get it out and make a nice old school lookin' out of it, but I need to finish one project before I start another. The brakes are locked up on it, thats all I know so far. I was told it ran great though.

There are some really awesome bikes on here...more pics please.

Reply to tire question: My rear tire is very well behaved on all types of roads. Just as easy to lean into the turns as my original sportbike tire.

I would think the sidewall wouldn't like that to much.
