[rextec]

Been lurking for a week or so on the forum and im glad to be a part of it!!! Im the proud owner of a 1966 honda CB160, its my first street bike and im really looking foward to fixing it up. Im really digging the general attitude here, everyone seems so constructive and helpful. With a little guidance here and there im sure i can make something special out of my bike. I have a background in cars from paint to rebuilding engines ive done it all. Time to take a little break from the bigger projects and focus on this project! Hoping to make a nice little cafe/with a few cues of brat style. Now on with the PICS!!!! Excuse the quality, camera phone..... :-\

here she is sitting next to my other classic ;D
