I recently got a '68 honda scrambler that my Grandpa left me in his will.  It was kept indoors ALL the time in a California garage.  It is in AWSOME shape!  I dont know that much about it but I would like to think I have a sweet bike.  There are no dents or scratches on it anywhere and aside from a little polishing this thing looks less than 2 years old!  I had the motor cleaned and a new fuel line put in and just to keep it clean I added a small fuel filter.  Does anybody know anything about my bike??  Pls tell me anything you might know about it please.  I am also going to insure it and wondered how much I should insure it for??  I can send a pic to anybody hone if thy want?  I love this bike and was surprised it started right up (with a new battery of course) and sounds pretty tough for just a 450!  Anyways I hope to hear from some people that love this old bike like I do.  Thanks Jerry

No comments?? :devil:  I just want to know any info on this bike.  Like what makes it special or not special?  Whats good or bad about this model and year?  ANY INFO would help as I know NOTHING about it.  I have the reciept and the '68 origanal title and a old big tech book that shows how to do Everything to repair the bike.  I am just proud to have it but want to learn about it from people that like these kinds of bikes so I could know more about it......anybody?????
