A New Toy
It's not mine but I get to play with it...
2005 Honda Rebel my daughter just purchased. Actually I found it for her, called the guy, checked it out, negotiated the price, and did everything except pay for it...;-)
I don't know much about these bikes but I will learn. I know it's a good starter bike for someone who is just learning to ride. It weighs 300 lbs, and packs a whopping 14 hp!
It seems to be in reasonably good shape but has been sitting for a while and needs to be cleaned up. oil change, clean the carb, oil the chain... basic maintenance. It also has some surface rust which I tried cleaning in some spots and it looks like it will clean up nicely. But it runs, everything works more or less as it should, has a new battery, good tires, seems like its never been dropped. It also has engine guards which seem like a good idea if my daughter ever drops it.
