I am just getting started doing research on a project bike. I would like to get my hands dirty and try and restore an old bike. I would like it to be a Honda as I am pretty partial to Honda. There are a lot of Honda fans on this forum and I thought I would start by asking other Honda fans. I am thinking about a GL1000 Gold Wing. I want one of the early naked bikes without all the plastic bits. Or maybe a CB500/550. What am I getting into? Are parts easy to get for old 70's bikes? I am an average mechanic but willing to try anything. Do you think this is too much to take on? Any advice good or bad would be appreciated. Once I decide what bike I will start posting in those forums. I see a lot of classic Honda's in profiles so I figure there must be others that have gone down this path and have some advice. Bikes to stay away from etc.
