Small update on my daughters Ody. Things have been pretty slow lately with the cold weather, and I am now mostly just waiting on parts. I sent the cylinder off to a guy in the Chicago area to be bored, but unfortunately he wont be able to get to it until sometime after the first of the year. I am now only short the balancer bearings and 1 crank seal and I should have everything to at least assemble the bottom end. All the chassis is assembled with the exception of the cage. The brakes are all complete and bled. These are truly amazing machines, but unfortunately finding parts can be a real challenge at times. Stinking Honda is discontinuing parts at an alarming rate and the vultures on Feebay are taking full advantage of that.
The gas tank is one big rust ball so I will need to do something with it soon. I have seen videos where people have done (sp) electrolyses to remove the rust and then followed up with a liner. I may go this route on it, as I prefer to stick with the factory tank.

Anyhow, I had a someone asking for an update so here is part 4..
