When I was 13, Dad told me I could have the CB450 he had traded a tent for, if I could get it running. The 450 was bored and stroked to a 500 and had straight pipes. It had been a cafe racer in a different life.
Early one summer morning, after reassembling the engine and carbs, I kicked that puppy over and woke up the neighborhood. A mouse nest shot out the exhaust pipe and across the yard. Then I went for a ride. HO-LEEEE-SHEET it was FAST! Wound up selling it to some Scottish guy who was going to turn it into a dirt bike. I heard he did, but never saw it afterwards. I used the money to help buy a Honda Odyssey dune buggy, which was a lot of fun, too.
