I've been making good use of the fine weather we have here in the UK. My CA77 has had a few teething problems after its restoration but I've worked my way through them and yesterday I took it for a nice 50 mile ride. It ran perfect and was a real pleasure, definitely not a racer and provided I rode it as the cruiser it was designed as, even the mediocre brakes are not too scary.
The vaguely damped suspension does make the bumpy roads a bit like riding a rubber ball but taken gently it does bring a smile to your face.

Greg,

Great to hear that your bike is running well and doing what Hondas should, bringing a smile to the faces of their owners. At fifty plus years old it's not all about going fast, in fact on a C/CA model it never was! Glad you're having fun.

And, I should have added, thanks to you Dennis. The clutch is fine and the battery stays charged.
