Thanks for the welcome!
Hah! Yeah the steering column snapped on the mower, but using the engine for a go cart might not be a bad idea...
The Honda ran (badly) back in August. Looong story, but the guy who had it before is a retard. Luckily he didn't have the bike long enough to kill it, just give it PTSD. It then sat in that barn for about 5 years. The pipes are replicas, if I remember right, as well as the seat. I'm going to restore it. So far I've mostly been cleaning, polishing and inspecting. I have been taking lots of pics and I'll post the highlights
We got the carbs off this weekend and found some lovely green fuel in them.
Nearly everything is there. I will have to get a replacement set of key locks, tho, since he lost the key on the highway and cut out the switch and put in a toggle switch and hacked off the seat lock as well.

Here it is out of the barn
Live like someone left the gate open!
