So ,introducing my honda,

Its a 1976 1200 EB1 hondamatic.With is except from a home made 54MM stainless exhaust ,bone stock.
Previous ownes has restored it,and is stil in pretty good condition.Although the rust monster is still under its skinn in some parts .

Interior:
its getting a meter console,with narrow band lamda meter,so i can set the carburetor jets ,as i'm going to put some motorcycle carburetor on,in the far future.
Steering wheel of unknown mark,28cm,yes that is small :roll:

Engine is still a EB1,i had it on the dyno,and it made 21,6hp on the wheels
Not realy what i wanted to be,the valva cover reveals some sludge,so i think the head gasket has had its time.

I bought a EB3 ,for spare parts ,with a EB3 engine,i'm going to rebuilt that engine.

Interesting work machining those wheels. :)
If the book says it can't be done, do it anyway.

A friend i me was going to weld the original bold holes,onley we found out that these rims have hardend inserts in the bold hole,and did not want to force them out,so i'l leave it this way.

I bought 165/60/13 for the front end,and 175/50/13 pirellie tires,i'l try a test fit this week maybe.If it works ,the are gonna be pouwdercouted in bronze colour.
The rims are 13" 6J ,ET30,if et 30 is to far out,I can machiene them to et35 and stil be strong

The down pipe is from the original cast piece back,into home made absorber,into harley davidson fishtail end :D .Just for fun now.
Complete system is 52mm stainles pipe.

I,m gonna build a header later.
But other prioratie's firs. :)
