1985 Honda XL600R

Starts right up, and pulls HARD!
Needs a couple of things, but nothing that'l keep it off the road or the trails.

Thanks.
Actually, I traded a kayak for the bike, so my toy count stayed the same.

Only 3 out of the 4 toys in that picture are functional.  And one of those three just got back on the road.   :-X

Nice bike. You should give BullDog a call.   [laugh]  Remember, the Norfolk/VB gear package requires a tank top and flip-flops.

True, but we are working on #4.
Speaking of glass houses, I seem to remember that one or more of your toys aren't functional either. Hell, one of 'em's not even in the same state. :o

The single is 500 miles away and I haven't even seen it yet.   :P  I don't consider that a toy yet.  It is a project until I get it road worthy.

Everything else is running well and in great shape (knock on wood).  This is despite my best efforts to tear up the boat two weeks ago, but that is why you carry a spare prop, right?  ;D

So how come yours is a project, and mine is a toy?

I will say tho,
my toys maintenance costs are getting kinda crazy lately.
I may have to cut down.
In the past 3 months I've bought ;
8 tires(and I still need 2 more.)
4 1/2 gallons of oil
5 oil filters
1 alternator
1 chain and 2 sprockets

And that doesn't include repairing the Ducati.
