Here is my 1973 Honda XR75 that i restored a couple of years ago. It belonged to a mate of mine and was the first bike that i learned to use gears on! Not exactly a current readers ride but something a bit different anyway. It was used by 'The bullet' for a while until she outgrew it and moved up to the CRF100 class.
It was all spray painted white when i got it, so i stripped it, powder coated the frame and other bits and pieces, then rebuilt the engine. With a new set of points it fired up first kick. As it is a US import i had to source most of the bits from ebay america. The only thing i need to complete it is a 16 inch nobbly front tyre as all i can find is a trials type tyre. Honda discontinued this wierd size yeard back.
