Lenny, Nice assortment. That Hondamatic, I have a chance to get a 750
version for cheap here. Don't know if I will bite. I drove a Helix once
and really liked the wind management and quiet motor. Easy to just jump on
and go. Had a Honda Passport and just sold it this past Spring; shame as it
was another just jump on and go bike. I got challenged a lot on that bike
by cars; mean drivers. Also, had a 1966 Benelli Cobra that I sold this
Spring and now kick myself that I sold it, nice little, cool Italian ride.
Hey, thanks again Lenny for the entertainment. Love my Ambo but always like
hearing about any bikes. Bob

| Yeah, I know..I'm losing my mind. We'll I've been riding a lot more this summer and not much time to work on the bikes but I will this winter. I will be selling at least one of my Honda Helix scooters as soon as it is back together (it was bought to sell, waiting for motor mounts), an old Vespa scooter project that has been laying dormant way too long and I need to get the CB400A running and out the door(maybe). Also a possibility I might be selling my running Ambo as well but not until I take a load of photos to make sure I'll know how to put my restoration Ambo back together. The Cal II stays unless I decide not to sell the running Ambo. And I still am restoring my other Ambo. Anyway to answer the question (don't everyone yell now) I am buying a 81 BMW R65. I was looking for an inexpensive, reliable, light, good handling, comfortable and easy to work on bike to drive in my urban area that could also go on the road for possible light touring. Similar to an Ambo but with better brakes (dual front discs), running and needing nothing or just a few minor things. Buying this bike will give me the push I need to clean out the garage (at least that's what I'm telling my wife) BTW, thanks to all those who responded about shipping. I have several options and I'm investigating them to see which will work best for all parties. Lenny Seidman On Oct 21, 2004, at 9:18 PM, Michael Jones wrote:
