Got to talking with my good neighbour today. He is the landlord and his tenants are great people too. Discussed the broken old fence on our property line and our trees hanging over each other's properties. Fence can wait another year and we both like trees so nothing is going to be done at this time.
He was curious about our flower beds and I invited him over to our yard. That's when he spotted the Bonnie sitting in my yard. He was totally interested and asked all kinds of questions. This surprised me at first and then he told me he still has his 1978 Honda 550 sitting in his garage. This guy is older than me and he sure didn't look like a rider. He told me it hasn't ran in over 20 years now but he used to ride it quite a bit back in the day.
I immediately told him that the Honda was a bike that I would be interested in. He thought that you can't get parts for it any more. Told him honestly, that if the bike is complete there are still plenty of parts available and with a bit of work it can be made to run again. I just wanted to make sure that he knew that the bike is still worth something. He said that he is not interested in getting it running again and that if he decides to get rid of it, he will let me know first. There could be a sweet little Honda in my future. Here's hoping.
Oh ya! He sure did like my wife's flowers too. Turns out he is Dutch background and loves any flowers.
