I'll have to screen grab some of these pictures of the rear sets and pipe when I get time.

Oh yeah. I was looking through that whole mess. Maybe she should have gone to rehab.

Here is the bike. Auction over in 5 hours. The pipe is really nice, with boots you wouldn't get burned. And like I said I need to screen grab some pics of the rear sets  just in case.

Amy did have a nice set of pipes on her.

That's a CB K5, anyways, not a "Bomber" (indicates the early 4-speeds).
Nothing special about it other than having a lot of high-end aftermarket stuff bolted on.
I'm wondering why anyone would spend that much on a bike and retain what's basically the stock "clunk-o-matic"  suspension ??
