Project Honda Benly Dream Needs a Lot Of TLC, But Can It Get Dialed In?

You know basic moto math, right? If you're unfamiliar, that's the basic premise that n + 1 is the formula for the proper number of motorbikes to have in your possession at any given time. 

With project bikes, the math is a little bit different. There, the equation is something more akin to "for every problem you solve, at least two more spring up in its place." They're kind of like hydra heads that way, but as long as you have some expectation that's what you're in for, it doesn't have to be the end of the world. If problem-solving and getting stuck into the process are things that appeal to you about DIY bike maintenance and/or restoration, then this might even be your candy.

And if that's the case, you're going to love this video. It's the latest from Brick House Builds' ongoing series on a Honda Benly Dream they picked up a while back. The engine was seized, but there was still just something about it that compelled BJ and Seth to pick it up and bring it back to the workshop. I mean, as a fan of vintage Honda motorcycles, I think it's not hard to understand why. It's an extremely appealing design aesthetic, for one, and this one was definitely not in the worst shape for being the age that it is.
