Faults:

None really. Nothing has went completely wrong. We are cleaning, fixing and repairing as we go with the semi restoration. Only general maintenance required.

General Comments:

It's a blast to ride, even with my 300 pound butt. Can spin the rear tire through 3rd in gravel with knobby tires. It can also wheelie in 4th if you gas it and lean back right.

It's a little low in the back, but other than that, most parts are decently priced, but aftermarket is almost non existent.

Right now we are still working on it and have a rebuild kit waiting, but the front brake is too weak to stoppie as of now.

Faults:

Only real problem it ever gave me was the stator dying out of nowhere.

General Comments:

Massive pain in the butt to start until you learn the steps for your bike. Once you learn your bike, it's a one kicker.

When you are kick starting it, the big cylinder will occasionally kick back. That usually ends in some minor pain.

Tons of power. I've lifted the front tire off the ground many times on accident before.

It's awesome offroad, you can go just as fast offroad as you can on.

There's also a monster difference on mpg, depending on how much you twist the throttle; once that second carb opens up, it's tearing through gas, but you can't stop twisting because that second carb kicking in is just too much fun.

Faults:

It was very hard starting when hot, needed about 10 kicks. Replaced the stator, now starts reliably in 2-3 kicks. $140 from rickystator.com.

General Comments:

Plenty of power for the street and trails.

I lowered the forks 1.5 inches in the clamp; now it is more stable at high speed on the street.

Faults:

None since overhaul.

General Comments:

I bought this motorcycle in a neglected condition and made an overhaul. Main problems were worn out brakes and chassis bearings.

I found all the parts from factors with the exception of the brake disc, which I obtained from David Silver at a reasonable price, together with a rather expensive master cylinder.

Hey, this bike is 20 years old and considering the abuse it must have suffered, it's still going strong and is a hoot to ride. It just goes to show how well this machine was built, that Honda parts are still available for it, and yes they are a little expensive, but I don't think I will be needing many.
