Hello, new here and wanting to share.
This is my '83 VT500 my dad bought new in '84. I used to take it out while he was at work back in the mid to late '80s. It's what I learned to street on after riding dirt since I was 5. I finally convinced him it had sat in his garage long enough and took it from him a few years ago. Cleaned the carbs up, did a general tune up and...bang...honda reliability brought it to life...
She currently has just over 24k on the OD but both the speedo and tach do not want to work. Swapped in another cluster but it was worse then the OG cluster so I made a quick and dirty mount for a water resistant iPhone case and use the GPS to track my speed.
