Husky? NO! Moto Villa

Nope me neither.

All depends on where and how long something sits. I lost a 77 Honda CB750 I got cheap and was going to freshen it up for the spring. It sat under my upper porch at my old house and found the cylinders rusted up from condensation over the winter. So after that anything with an exposed engine get stored in garage or barn now.

Right...problem Solvered... the "enriching" (choke) cable was pushing out of the lawn mower throttle fitting and not achieving full actuation...(that was hard to type after 4 mountain goats) once i figured this she lit up like a honda 110.

"there is some RED in the SHED

motor cases and brake plate back from the blasters and a heap of shiny plated bolts and bits and pieces...start on reassembly of the engine. question...should i paint teh cases before taking it to mr mc Hanic or wait till she is in 1 piece for a paint job?? ill get some piccs soon. the forks have an allooominum socket on the bottom of the sliders and it dont want to budge and its too soft to put a stilsons on it...any suggestions how i get it off? pics up shortly

Ask mr mc Hanic how he likes to work on stuff. Painted or not.
Or do what you like.
I like to paint the individual pieces so you can see the gaskets and places that are clean like I found them.
Nice paint, don't scratch it up like I usually do!
It's paint and will not last forever..I've seen your videos!!

trailor queen this one.... should still look like that in years to come....

some bling

Some updated pics on the rare villa, progress has been slow but finally getting to put it back together..

final pic, having issues with the new exhaust and the muffler..re building the rear wheel, getting onto the plastics...

Is that a Factory zip tie thru the cylinder fin?

Looking good!! Never heard of Moto Villa before.
