    Restoring a vintage dirtbike

    My friend and I are restoring a 1973 yamaha 100 enduro
    its in fairly good shape for a 73. We stripped it down today and tomorrow we are taking out the engine. it should be a lot of fun.

    Post some pictures when you get a chance.

    I used to have a 72 Honda 175 w/dual carbs. Been thinking about restoring it lately.

    I still have a 77 TW 200 and ride it all the time. This is a great place/time for you to learn the art. Don't forget the photos.

    That will be fun. I've restored a couple old British bikes. It's fun to work on something where are all the parts are out in the open.

    Rest area, rest home -- what difference does it make? I'm sure Grandma enjoyed seeing all those big trucks pulling in and out.
