Let's try a bigger picture.

So, anybody see what I see?

I see the rear end and license plate to maybe a 750 and a red Tracy project ??

you're good..real good! 

Yup, Tracy kit but not sure which bike it's on. I'll find out today.  The blue bike is a 1968 CB 450 I believe. We talked about it yesterday.

I still like the 450.  It would probably be an easier resale after a restoration than a Tracy bodied 750...IMO

He's got good taste..nice bikes in that shop.

I agree. We talked about the 450 yesterday. Has two.

Bet a cold beer the Gold bike will be a 72.See another 750 sitting beside it. The Tracy is hard to be 100% sure what it is but does look Honda. Look forward to more pics after your trip.

  PS-Those SL350's are pretty popular around here

I had one when I was just out of HS. They command high dollar for some reason.

He want's to sell me one and possibly trade my CT-90 in the deal. Other than the CB 450 there's not really anything I'm interested in.

If you look closely at the blue 450 it doesn't need much.

Out of the whole garage, I don't see any Lester's....hmm....that's discriminating......

I need a bigger garage now, 6 isn't enough......

I just caught up with the thread, What a great garage, not allot of room to work, what a great garage!  I see the 450's and a twin 500 in the pic. The blue one is sweet .The bomber with the 500T motor would be nice, maybe not as nice as a 450 and a 500, and he wants to wheel and deal? Excellent !You did pick up that Kaw I hope.
   I was thinking that this guy is just another hoarder, but, I'm seeing on going projects, and it's very neat. Is this guy near retirement age and stocking up projects for his time off, or is he a frustrated 9-5er that wants to open a restoration bike shop on his own terms (I know that story),but is scared to leave the job. What ever ,I'll bet he'll be an interesting guy to know.

[toytuff]

Yes, we get along just fine. Wants to reduce stock but as you can see collecting is one thing, selling another. All of them need a lot of work, some more than others.

I told him to grab the best of one model and restore. Sell others..move to next. Would have a sweet collection in a few years with all the OEM parts at his disposal. I joke him all the time with.."better make out a Will, you'll die with them."

Still plan on a visit but hot to do another CBX. Nothing like them. Period.

No, I missed the Kaw. Right in my town too! He bought it. Very, very clean.
