New member in Troy

Hey, everyone. Been riding in South Alabama my whole life, can't believe it took me this long to find this site! I love the older vintage bikes (my first was a 71 Honda Trail 70 in copper) and I currently own a '76 Honda Goldwing (Old Man), a '82 Honda CB900f (Young Gun), and a '71 Suzuki TS125 (Little B*tch). All yellow (seriously, by accident). And none of which are currently "running" per se . So anyone who knows any good shops (lost my mechanic recently), or just has any good advice, I will owe you a beer. Thanks! and Great Site!

Welcome to the forums from Fairhope!!!

Now show us some pic's of these projects you have. Someone here may even be able to help you from time to time.

Welcome from west mobile. If you need help with one of your scoots. Just post it in the shop forum and we will try to help as much as possible.

By the way. I have family up around troy.

Welcome.

Appreciate the warm welcome, people. Spent most of the day scouring the site for info and ideas. Been letting my projects rest for way too long, but the riding weather bug has bitten me hard this year and I really want to push hard and fast on these guys and get things done.

Thanks for the tip about DWMS.com 01YZF6. Saw his build for biggerjim in another post and it looked great!

Will be posting pictures soon. Wait until you see this "charging system" somebody stuck on this CB900. Its mind-boggling.

Welcome Brother! I did not realize there were so many cb900's in our area, they are great motorcycles and I would be honored to help you with it!

Welcome from Fairhope!

I apparently can't stop grabbing old bikes. I was out at my Mom's old place, just snooping around for whatever and discovered my dad's barn had collapsed (many years ago) and buried a 1971 Honda CL 175. Needless to say, efforts are being made to rescue the trapped orphan and give it a new home!

Any CL175 experts in the house?

Nice find and very lucky.

Ok, guys. Picked up the latest rescue . This was my dad's and I really want to fix it up right. (he was a racer, so this may not turn out stock) Sorry for the photo quality, was trying to get some shots with the phone before I lost the light.
Enjoy

Well. I got some scrubbing to do. Be back later with pics of the other bikes once I clean them off a bit. ( I hate carpenter bees)

Nice. Looks like a lot of work. Good luck with it. Hopefully it will be an easy build.

Welcome Lucky , from Bon Secour . Between Foley and Gulf Shores . HAHA

Finally broke out the camera and headed to the barn for some pics of the rest of the"family" here
