NEW PICS!

#46 Unread post by Justy »

Well I took some pics today of my mother and I with the bike finally. I still have not found any old pics of when she used to ride me on the back when I was about 9 years old. If I find them I will post those as well. As you can see I've grown quit larger then her lol.

The Honda still isn't finished yet. I need to get the side cover decals made yet and I'm looking for the back rest with luggage rack that originally came with the bike. Found some on ebay but where in to bad of shape.
I put saddle bags on since I use the bike to go back and forth to work and Since I am a woman, I need to bring my very large purse lol.

My mother used to have horses years ago in the early 80's when she had the Honda. She had to sell the horses and give away the Honda after my parents divorce in the mid 80's. She got horses again since that was always her true love after 20 years and I finally got my first horse (MIss Jena) last month. So I took a pic of my horse and the Honda along with my mother.

Sweet outcome, you should be very very proud of yourself. I hope to do the bike I have as much justice when I am finished making it pretty and putting it into working order.
