I must admit more people looked at mine
And you can't beat retro bikes .....this old honda really does get plenty of attention when I'm out on it
I guess you really don't see to many around

And it does make me chuckle that most of these "adventure bikes" never really see  wet weather...let alone a bit of mud......

Are these bikes really this small
I,just had a run out to Guildford on my standard 500/4 and when I parked up I looked back at the bike as I normally do....

And this is what I saw





There is no photoshop on this and the picture was taken pretty much square on.....

That other bike is massive or mines tiny (perhaps a bit of both)

Anyway it made me feel like I was 16 again parking my moped next to the real bikes at the train station going to tech?

As some of you might know from the USA site I had a bit of a lock up at 30ish mph ?
The chain guard  got eaten by the front sprocket and jammed solid....this is the aftermath

The link below tells the story of the bike

http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=118045.0







So after finding out all parts were obsolete and with much thanks to Bryanj I managed to make a new push rod and sort the cable attachment out as they took the most beating?

So I was left with just a chain gaurd to sort out..I tried an standard plastic one on I had spare and it just didn't look right .....I couldn't see one on the net that I thought would do the job and I definately did not want to spend any money on the wrong one....
So I thought I would have ago at making one???
So from this



To this?



To finally this?



I was happy until I saw the final picture and now I think it looks abit low at the front .....so I might have to jack it up abit.....but I like the fact it's a solid connection as it seems that was the weak point on the last one

So now after the best weekend we have had I'm back on the road

Hi Bryan
I will dig the frame numbers out later and get them across to you.
It's definitely worth a look

The white screens not a problem....
It's just nice to know if the pm is sent....

Even nicer if the free tax gets to 1975 then both ny 500's would qualify
Although I looked last night and my st 70 is now free tax so that's 15 quid saved I suppose

Hi
What happened to the bike I know it was a few weeks back?
Did you sell it or are you parting it out as we speak?
I'm only 20 mins up the road from you......could do with a few bits
Or would have the whole bike,if its still around

Hi Bryan I made it over

Do you know if it is a rolling date now so next year it will be 1975 bike then 76 etc so more in line with age then a fixed cut off date...

And one other thing I pm a message tonight and I also had a odd white screen appear?

I'm new on this site but have been posting on the USA site for some reason and then bumped into Bryanj....who helped me out with a small issue I had so I thought I would post the link to,what has been going on on that site....

I have an old 70's racer built by hadleigh custom and a few phill joy tweaks
And a standard 500/4 that I just had to have to go with the racer?
Plus a shed full of other bikes mostly Hondas but some Brit stuff slung in with it?

Here's the links to my racer story..please look I brought the bike from a barn in Essex untested and no paper work ....and I have since found out almost all the history of it just because a distinctive tank and a few Hadleigh custom stickers..quite a tale???

And here's the one for the issue I had that Bryan helped with
