Roddy's Motorcycle Shop

[Pfloydgad]

Well.....

I was riding around the otherday, just hitting some roads I haven't been on in a while, and came into Jamestown from the west. I was on Old US35 and came upon Roddy's Motorcyle Shop on the outskirts of town.

A few bikes out front, all used and brought back to life by Roddy and his staff.

I walked in and sitting to my rt. was a bike I haven't seen in a long time.

A factory white, Honda, CB750 Hondamatic. Not cherry , but still it looked good.

Roddy came around the corner, introduced himself, and said he had another one in back. This one a factory Blue, with Bates bags and trunk and a Vetter Plexifairing II. And with just 18k on the clock.

To see one is unique, but to see 2 of those classics, is just plain lucky.

Both could use some TLC, but both ran and both would get you down the road just fine.

So if you want to see some classics, drop by Roddy's in Jamestown, he'll great you with a smile, and envite you to walk through his building, and adjacent barns, full of old bikes.

Just thought I'd give him a plug, a nice guy with a nice oldschool shop.

Ride safe all, and ATGATT please.

I dreamed of this bike! Back when Roush Honda only sold bikes.May even still have a brochure somewhere. Ended up going with what I could afford - Suzuki GT250 (about ran the wheels off it) KZ650 was another coveted one.

You know, I've heard of this shop - either in their own ads, or in a magazine - they have a reputation for being some of the nicest folks around and for having some nice older bikes for sale too.
