Hey, 6pk. You got  another pic you can post? One that shows off the bike a little more?


was hoping the same thing... i think it is just the angle of the reflection but the pipe looked rusty at first glance.

Mine runs perfect.....all the time.

 I must have missed something - why is your bike the "million dollar CB"? It sure is nice but is it plated with real platinum or something?

That moniker was started by the parts manager at Honda I deal with. It realistically is "The Million Hour CB". ;)

That was chain number (?) that served its last. The fellow I got the bike from had the engine out to rebuild the top end. She had 45,000 pretty hard miles on her, so it definitely wasn't the original chain, by a long shot. It wasn't junk so I kept it. He had it wrapped in an oily rag and it stayed pretty well intact. The sprockets were both also just replaced and those I also kept. But yes - it died and is awating replacement. And since the weather changed a bit, and I'm trying to get the K5/K3 and K2/K1 frames painted, the funds that should be going to a new chain or going into paint.
