So I have listed my bike that I've only owned for a month and a half on Ebay. I am not convinced I want to sell it though.
Here's my story. I fell in love with this bike:
So I bought this bike:
Which now looks like this:
However I took the bike to a local expert who has worked on nothing but SOHC4 Hondas for 40 years. He thinks it's junk and need to get rid of it and buy something more original. I had agreed, but am having second thoughts upon getting it to fire up. It needs the front brake redone to be ride-able. However I see people going with different fork/brake (double disc) combos.
What is the sensible thing to do? I am not a mechanic by trade but do most of the work on my BMW 3 series myself and almost all of the work on my 1978 Land Cruiser. How much would it cost to do the front end right? With what combo of parts?
Thanks for looking,
