Yes they are nice, its just what my dad use to ride and now and again we used to ride them too. My first bike was a honda nad all the bikes I have are Honda, Motorsport, K3, XR650 and CRF450. Mint.

Lovely! What year is that? Thanks for the nudge Neilios, I have a 1974 XL350 Motorsport, which I had nearly finished "doing" before I got sidetracked by an XL185, now I must dig out the 350 and finish it. Inspiring place, this Forum.
(love 'em both, and the Alp!)
