Good Job Jay! I guess I need to put some pics up of my '74 Schwinn, with modified J engine ? I have put a bunch of old left-over parts, and a new engine by Quenton on it?
I just found some really important info for you (and some others)!
This info is "Hot off the Press" (actually fresh from the eMail) Written in the finest Engrish of the time, prepare yourselves accordingly.
From 1962 Honda motorcycle Handbook
Rules of the Road to keep in mind.
1. At the rise of the hand by Policeman, stop
rapidly. Do not pass him by or otherwise disrespect
him.
2. When a passenger of the foot, hooves in sight,
tootel the horn trumpet melodiously at first. If he
still obstacles your passage, tootel him with vigor
and express by word of mouth, warning Hi, Hi.
3. Beware of the wandering horse that he shall
not take fright as you pass him. Do not explode the
exhaust box at him. Go soothingly by.
4. Give big space to the festive dog that makes
sport in roadway. Avoid entanglement of dog with
wheel spokes.
5. Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there
lurks the skid demon. Press the brake foot as you roll
around the corners, and save the collapse and tie
up.
Properly applied, these 'Words of Wisdom', should help light your path. And help you have a good day of riding.
