            Distance to get them wouldn't be terrible. I've got 2 problems, I just traded off my Conversion
       van ( it had a trailer hitch ) for a new Grand Caravan ( it doesn't have one......Yet.) and whatever
       they would end up going for. Siiiiggghhh!!!!!  Looks like "750 Heaven" I can't imagine having that
       herd of 750s to play with. Sure would be fun though. Problem is, I'd want to get all of them
       running. I have a problem parting out a bike to build another. But, that's just one of my problems.

              Gotta get me another trailer hitch. Then, my main problem would be the money. Ha!Ha! 

                                                                 Later on, Bill

What? Not a mention of "Sandcast"? Ha ha, looks like my motley "collection", I hope I get more than 600 when I flog some of them shortly, ha ha! ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Q:    How many are there? Do they all run? Do they have titles? Would you be interested in trading for a 1976 Ford Pinto with a Desoto engine? Thanks

   A:    These bikes could easily be made to run with only a very minor amount of TLC. Possibly a tune up and or oil change. Tell me more about this Pinto, Is the dash clock working? Does it have curb feelers? Thanks, Kevin

 

Damn, I can't beleive this guy is considering trading my hobby for a pinto :-[

Mental note to Terry, don't put all your bikes in the one auction...................... ;D

generally that's a good idea Terry. I've seen quite a few lots go for next to nothing, where one bike would go for half or more than half of what 3 or 4 went for.  ??? weird

Up to $810 w/4 hrs left. The backrest on the blue one is almost worth that alone! I'm looking for something a little taller though.   ::)

SOLD! $1235.50 is still a bargain in anyone's books, most of those bikes would have sold for that much each here in Oz, I'll definately sell mine individually................. Cheers, Terry. ;D

And acording to the ebay cross refference chart, the winning bidder, hudson5x, was none other than our very own 71CB750.

Way to go, man. Nice score!! I love the paint job on the bnlack one at the end of the row.  ;D

Terry,
you are up early,

Yeah mate, I like to get on the 'net first up before I leave to go to work, as I can't access Ebay or Yahoo from my army compuker, the bastards! Ha ha, Cheers, Terry. ;D
