Re: Chris' Cafe build (09.03.07) FIRST RIDE!
Stay with the bike Chris..
Believe me I speak from experience.
That little bastard CB450 I have almost killed me when I lost my brakes (both front & rear), has been pushed
about 2 miles in total (bad electrical system), and other random little issues that seem to not stop (dragging front brake).
But, Now that I have had almost a full season of dealing with it, the bike is coming more reliable (just as yours will). I thought about selling it, but then some punk ass kid is gonna get my CB450 in perfect running shape, becasue I fixed everything by trial and error...
Every bike (and even cars) have their "shakedown" runs.
These older deals just seem to have "shakedown" seasons ;D
Even if you only take the bike out for a ride once a month, you still have it to ride...
