Nice one mate,

In my opinion the C70 / 90 were one of the greatest bikes every conceived. Bikes for the mases, run forever on a show string and can be a real blast to.

Re: Wolfc70 Interview

Nice interview, multiple bikes in the garage, that are project bikes...you must have a lot of fun tinkering in that shed.

A Honda CX500, that bike brings back memories, much maligned bike, but hey, when i was at Uni back in the day, they were the Graduate student bike of choice! Just about to go "project" on my old 500 pantah. Thanks for sharing from all the way Down Under! "The other Wolf!"
