Hello everyone, my name is Anson I use Scotchie as a referrence to my Scottish ancestry. I also use WannaDucBad in some other forums if anyone knows me from elsewhere.
I ride a Ducati Monster 695 that I rebuild from a broken wreck. I also have a '78 Honda CB750 that I'd like to drop a sidecar on eventually for a daily commuter.
I found this site because I've recently been toying with the idea of restoring a '72 Honda XL250 my Dad gave me when I turned 19. About 2 years later I tryed to start it after the winter to find it had no compression. I in all my youthful exuberacne promptly disassembled it and it has been in that condition for.... going on 13 yrs now. Anywho I'm trying to find parts sources for those old bikes. Any info would be much appreciated. I'll do some searches but please let me know if you have any sources I'm open.
BTW: The first pics in the wiki set-up it showed me before opening an account is the exact bike I have. Talk about a shot of yesterday. I grew up and learned to ride on that bike my Dad had bought it new in 73 3 years before I was even born.
