Dick

That's a superb looking bike. They look so "right" in red. It was quite a brave move in the '60s by Honda when everything else was black.

Amazing how much history that apparently "untouched" bikes have....

You've done a fantastic job.

You'll have to take the bike to the CVMG annual rally in Paris (Ontario!) in June.

Looks super.

Thanks for the comments! Loose ends to tie up this weekend and then it should be completed.

The whole bike is beautiful. Did you recover the seat? Did you use a kit and was the chrome included? Very nice.

That is a recovered seat that I bought. Found it while looking for C110 parts in Woodland, WA. and had to have it! : )

I think it's done. I took it for it's first ride this afternoon and all is good.
