Goodbye Old Friend

She served us well, but recently placed into retirement from Demo-Bike status, our Honda Rebel was sold. So like all kind-hearted motorcycle addicts parting with a beloved member of the family, we decided to give her carb one final cleaning to ensure a smooth running, perfectly purring send off to her new owner.

Yup...as you guessed, it took a little longer than we anticipated. But what garage project doesn't? After the pulling the carb on three separate occasions, mounting the float upside down, not properly connecting the float valve, and calling in the bull-pen, Erik, Matt, Dereck, and Brian were slightly elated when she started up for the last time in the warehouse.



Goodbye Ole Girl!
