Beater bike thread
figured id make a new place for folks to post their second or even third string bikes. mines an 82' honda cm450 which i rescued from a coworkers backyard for the measley sum of $200. had it running again in two days with new air, fuel, and plugs, removed the baffles, broke down the carbs for cleaning, mounted a much better handlebar from ebay, removed the mirrors and did a lot of rust removal and detail painting. ride it almost everyday on the way to work

Hey dave, is that the nsx in the background of the 2nd pic? If so you definitely need to put up pics of it. Those cars are gorgeous.

It's a Honda. All you need to do is crank it up and go. I had two pressure washers that sat underneath a deck for 2 years. I bought them and put some new gas in and bam they worked (And still do after 4 years) perfect!!!
My normal bike is a beater bike. I bought it wrecked and put it all back together. Here it is... http://www.flickr.com/photos/atlanta...7602727619521/ Which I plan to rattle can it primer black today. I was going to paint it but I don't have the time so I'm just going to primer it for now.
