My first bike was a CD175, the early retro single carb version of Shasta’s bike. Vintage Monkey is now officially on my California venue list, if the powers that shouldn’t be ever allow us to fly again. Thank you for sharing this inspirational story
Wow! Just wow! Shasta your bike is super cool. I love the look of it and how it looks while you ride. Just beautiful...the colour, the tone, etc. It is really remarkable that what you re doing with your passion... to find out about your motorcycle repair and restoration venture! Cheers to Vintage Monkey!
Good for you girl. I just bought a 1979 Honda CB750 and I am restoring it to original. I also had a Honda CL 175 and it was one of the best bikes I ever owned. Would like to find another one. Also had 3 Honda 450's. Another great bike. My prize restore is my 1970 Norton Commando 750 Roadster which I still own.
Love it! I started tinkering with old bikes which lead to starting a business as well. Thanks for sharing this story as it always helps to keep inspired!😎👏🏼🤘🏼
my first bike was a CD175 (single carb version) and it was totally bullet proof. Amazing little bike and already retro styled from new! Those Hondas had unburstable engines. Great memories!
Awesome stuff, very cool little bike. 72 CB500 here, just learning the character of old bikes but I dig it. Super cool story, it sounds like an ideal life. I like her strong presence and character, plus brains and beauty..and passionate about motorcycles?! Triple threat.
My first was a Kawasaki G3SS. 89cc and would do 70mph. A little Japanese demon! It had an oil pump, oiled the fuel mix automatically. I would play with the engine, take the head off... disassemble the brakes and hubs. Lots of fun. I went to college and about that time my little brother mentioned it and asked if he could sell it to a friend. I agreed and have regretted it ever since. I still have the title and memories.
So what's the HP on your CL and what gearing are you running? My race bike makes right at 24 hp and we usually run a 17/35 for most tracks. Top speed is about 90 mph on a long straight like at Road America.
Great to see all those old bikes being brought back to life! Love your dedication and passion 👏

I receive great pleasure from tinkering with my old bikes, and a lot of satisfaction. The older bikes are so simple. AUS

Inspirational story . . . Go Shasta!

I have the same model and year as her 175, and I love it
Nice story, congratulations and thank you for sharing...
Fabulous... well done for following your passion... keep enjoying your journey.
First bike was a CB350. It was awesome. Quick, light, easy to work on.
Earning from what you love doing is where I'd like to be someday...
Only if you're self employed. If you work for someone else they can make you despise even the job you like. Been there, done that
Thank you for sharing this amazing stuff with us it's very intriguing..

Awesome, I'm a big fan of cafe racers and plan to restore a Honda Cb200 here in Malaysia.
I think she's got a cool thing going.
The coolest woman on the planet!

Very impressed
Amazing shop.
That was awesome!
What would make that little bike sound really good would be a crank and cam from a Honda CD175. 360 crank. It will sound like a little Triumph!

Pretty cool
Lo primero que necesita para reconstruir una bicicleta, además de la bicicleta misma, es un manual de servicio adecuado.

I do worry about who will keep and ride the BSA, Triumph, Velocette and Norton motorcycles currently slumbering in old Boomer's garages.
look in youtube : suzuki gs 1150 e is great
Love your stuff BUT. Vintage. veteran. Classic. that's how it go's NOT just Vintage
Plz adopt me
I prefer old bikes and thats all I have. New bikes are as bad as new cars, rolling computers.
Rip journalism. They are showing meaningless news
ha! so true!
