My '84 has a stable mate!

My 16 YOA son bought himself a bike! We found a 1983 Honda CM250 Custom on Craig's List in Mitchell, SD. Went to look at it last night. It is in very good shape. Odometer reads only 3350 miles. It sure seems like it could be original. Very few nicks and dings. Everything works and it all feels tight. Too much wind around here to ride it home 70 miles but she fit in the pickup easily. He is signed up for the MSF course to be held here in Madison on July 10 & 11. I think this will be a great starter bike for him and it only cost hiim $500.00!!!!!!!!!

 

I know this may be too late to be asking, but does anybody know anything about this bike?

 

We are looking forward to getting out to ride together, even if only to DQ!

Looks Good!! Be careful not to run off and leave him when you ride togather. He will want a Bigger one soon enough.

I was surprised at the spunk this litte thing has even with my, shall we say, extended size. Danny is already planning the mods he wants to make.

 

He's caught the bug!

Danny has been riding for almost a month now! We have taken one out of town run, a short 30 mile round trip to Doreen's parents farm. I did have to keep an eye on him as the Venture wanted to get up and go too much! He is alreay looking for a bigger bike so he can keep up with me. He is saving and really likes the cruiser type bikes. He is not interested in a tourer. Imagine that, a teenager not wanting an old gut bike.

 

Watching him ride, I have to admit that I am very proud of him. He handles this bike like a pro.
