Sniffle Sniffle
« on: July 21, 2012, 12:08:39 PM »
Well yesterday I made it final.
I sold me 72 350f... and got a used sv650

on the plus side a local guy bought the bike and really seemed pumped to have it. I already missed the bike as he rode it away....

sorry to hear it.
Sold mine almost a year ago.  Another bike always helps, but I miss it. :)

I sell one or more bikes each year........BUT......I always have my original K3 ready to go......Hope you made some $$$



A friend just found a near original CB75K5 in his neighbor's garage.....$250.

He got it running in less than an hour and sold it to the son of a long-time K1 owner for $800......sans the original exhaust.  He says he will keep the remaining original tank and covers on the shelf and do a mild cafe build.  Only 16xxx miles.

Just came from a sv.  You'll love it, tons of torque and an absolute blast to ride.
