Hello it's Ben here, unfortunately after visiting the other Superdream forum the other day and finding it was deleted i stumbled across this place and i hope you don't mind me joining this one 
Anyway this is my bike: A 1980 Honda CB250NA Superdream bought off eBay September 2012 and i but it back on the road after 10 years of being stored in a garage, luckily for me in was in pretty good condition so i did'nt really need to do much to it.
How it looked after put it back on the road
I enjoyed over a year or so of riding it but had to use it everyday for college so it's condition deteriorated quite alot, here it is at the moment after i've started to take it apart:
As well as saying hello i need to ask a few questions that will help me get my bike back into decent working order and looking a bit better.
First one is i need to to the oil seals on the front forks, got the seals but don't know how much oil i need in the forks.
As you can see my engine is looking pretty scabby, how can i go about cleaning it up? (i'm stuck on this one as it's covered in aluminium rust and got no idea how to tackle it
)
Last one how do i adjust the balancer chain and cam chain as both are incredibly rattly and i'm sure i'm not doing the cam chain adjusting right as nothing happens
Thanks alot guys
Glad to be back on the Superdream forum. I miss my SD a lot and i've missed being apart of the forum and love seeing other people get up to with there SD's
P.S am i the youngest member on here? I'm 19 lol and most people don't get why i got an SD over something more modern, faster and better on petrol hahaha
