finally got the cm out for a spin today. this was first ride for the cm in 20 yrs! it was last plated in 1994 and was first ride since dad first bought it many years ago. it went pretty well aside from the rear tire rubbing under compression. but it ran like a watch..
i brought my tools just n case... but no need. i hit a buncha gravel just to see how it acted. no problem!
stopped many times just to keep working starter and all that cheese... worked like a charm.
bummer i screwed the pooch on this shot, but rd sign is "less traveled rd", but of course i cut top off.
was a good ride... and when i got back refilled tank and got 56.4 mpg. i have no clue if thats good or bad though?
no matter though, it just felt good to ride dads last bike after all these years of sitting, that he never got to ride..
