2 years of reliable and efficient service, and Handy Helix has a new owner.
Hate to see such a fine machine go, but replacing it with a newer, lower mileage Helix.
First possible name choice is "Buzbee Helix" (welcoming suggestions)

Yes, thank you Ultraliner.
First bike, 1990 NS50F. A must-have for the odd, elderly types with a need for speed.
The second, green bike is a '70-'71 SL100. Pure nostalgia. Beater without a heater.

I haven't spent alot of time scootering or tinkering recently. Right in the middle of winter and too ball freezingly cold at the moment to be indulging in much garage time.

I thought i'd share my most recent 2 wheeled acquisition... At least it's a Honda, so it kinda belongs in here somewhere ;)

Yes indeed.
One owner, now 89, parked it, gave it to his grandson, who kept it sitting around the last 5 years.
Garaged all it's life, used for going to the end of the drive to collect mail.
Not giving any number, but if I told you what I gave, you'd punch me in the face.
Me second Jog ever...the first was a '96 Next Zone.
viewtopic.php?f=21&t=34143
I am very curious about the name, "Artistic Spec."
Both Jogs run 40mph...maybe generous, but saw the speedo hit 40 today on the '93,
and remember pegging it on the '96.
