How tall are you Andy? I"ll guess around 6'5 or so. You don't have any trouble touching flat foot on your 750 do you ;D Being tall how does the CB 750 fit you. It must fit you pretty good with all the 1000's of miles of asphalt you've covered over the years.

I am 6`4 and no trouble flat footing anything :) The CB750 fits just fine and yes after 1000s of miles it has certainly been a good fit. Thanks.

Here is me on the K2

Andy how come every time I turn around there you are!? ;)  Great shot by the way

Frostyboy: That was a desert race about '73 or '74 and that is an XL250 with a lot of mods.

I had a flat tire about 20 miles out on the loop and the tire came off the rim so I had to cut it to get it out of the swing arm and then rode back in on the rim. It changes the gearing pretty drastically when you remove the tire so the going was fairly slow.

Lucky, yes had both bikes in the shows. I won 1'st and 2'nd at one show. It will be real interesting when I get the K0 done although the Harley boys' antics have caused several of the show organizers to drop motorcycles from their shows, especially the guy that shot flames out his pipes which lit the tinder dry grass behind his bike on fire.

Thnaks Johni.  Those are a fairly clean set of pipes I bought. It is the 3rd set on the bike. At work we have highly skilled welders. So when the do a patch they patch the inner and outer pipe with stainless.

When I got it, it was in sad shape when I got it. It had no real miles it had just sat in a dry basement  With an lot lot of polishing and cleaning I got it acceptable. I sorted out the mechanical end. That is all I ride and once you get the bike to an acceptable state, maintaining it is easy. I tried shortcut and they don;t work. You front end the work and then enjoy it.
