Think I found a 76 750 for a bargain price
« on: September 13, 2012, 05:57:49 AM »
So I rebuilt  a 76 550 into a sharp little cafe racer.  I wanted a 750 now. Been waiting on a decent price around here since its fall now. Found this 750 76k for 500$. Needs carb work. I offered  300$ he said 350$ is his lowest. Im going to pick it up today! :)

Where I live that would be a fair price.  No air box but the exhaust is there.  If the exhaust is in good shape and a title I would pull the trigger.  I have paid more for less bike!!

That's a steal for the parts and title alone.

I'd pick that up for $350! nice looking bike. Got some funky wiring going on on the left side, but that wouldn't stop me.  :)

You'll want to bend that license plate the other way so it doesn't cut into your tire.
