Budget bikes

I'm putting a CB160 back together, picked it up for $160 half disassembled, it had been in a basement since 1990. It's not a restoration though, only Evaporust and CorrosionX plus a few new parts. Look up Black Friday CB160 for my thread on Vintage Honda Twins or SOHC4 if interested.

I let one of those slip through my fingers a few years ago, and regretted it ever since. I love little Honda's, but I didn't have the skills to bring that one back to life. I checked out those sites and there's not enough pics. Hint.

Yeah it's tough working on projects without a shop, I've got de-rusted & CorrosionX'ed parts up on the attic floor on paper towels since day 2 of this project. Forks are next up, then I'll build a roller with no place to keep it.
Probably can't see the pics without logging in. Here's a few:

Whoa, that's a serious project. Best of luck. I love those little twins.

Thanks Gents. Should I put up a project thread here?
