Bought another Honda! Not a basket case and ready to go!

Unfortunately this one doesn't have any wheels. It starts easy and runs good, though.

That brings the tally up to four Hondas! Of course there's the CL378, it's got two wheels, but they're Kawasaki wheels. Another of the Hondas also has two wheels. Unfortunately it also has a hose and sprayer... yeah, it's a pressure washer but it'll faithfully start up, first or second pull after sitting for a year. The fourth Honda has four wheels! And a blade... it's a lawn mower... it starts easily, too... but it ain't much fun!
 
Since the swamp donkey tw/bw200 went to its new home, I've needed to fill the fat tire shaped hole that It left in my life. That happened today in the form of a 1986 BW200E. It is really in pretty solid condition. Well loved and worn out but doesn't appear to have been overly abused. It uses a lot of oil and smokes so I'm sure it will need rings at least and possibly an over bore and piston. It'll get cleaned up and mechanically refurbished and then ill ride the wheels off of it.

Nice score, I missed one of those for 500 bucks a few weeks ago.
yeah man, you shoulda grabbed that! They don't come up for a good deal very often. Thats why i jumped on this one!

Yeah you will, that thing looks like more fun than a barrel of monkeys

Should be good for a hoot, a hollar, some bruises and maybe even a broken bone ;)

I was going to overdraft the account and buy it but it was sold about an hour before I called about it. :(
 
Got me a bigger compressor. It’ll support a piece of equipment soon to follow.

Jelly.

I've been meaning to upgrade mine for about a year now...

I really need to get a good oil-lubed compressor. For one thing, much quieter.
IR claims 78dB on this unit. I hope that’s accurate.

What did that set you back? there was one almost exactly like that in our BL and I could have got it for 1800 bucks CAD, retail was over $5k USD but I didn't have the cash :-(

$1k from Northern Tool. 5hp, 18.1cfm @ 90 psi, 135 max psi.
 
Cool, the one I was lookig at was 2 stage and 35 CFM at 90 psi so a little more oomph. It was also 220 so would have meant some wiring changes in garage too.
