CB 750 K0 For Christmas!!!
« on: December 26, 2018, 06:43:48 AM »
Aloha folks from Maui.
For Christmas, my oldest daughter got me a 1969 K0, Candy Red. It looks like someone changed the front fender at some point.
The wheels turn, have not checked the engine yet but it looks good.
Next year I'll be able to hang it on the Christmas tree.

These are pretty good little items, from Hallmark of all places.

You can still buy one on Amazon and eBay, for $15-ish.

It moved last night, I think the Hawaiian menehunes are coming out to ride it after we are in bed. They are rascals

I bought an extra. Anyone want one?  They list for $18.99 and I can get a couple more if there is interest.
$10 and shipping sound fair?

They are just like a Henry Ford selection, you can have any color as long as it is red in this case.

Saw a dealer in the plains was customizing wings with custom paint.
Imagine someone will be able to do the same. But, they are going to have to have it on hand...as a VMR or similar paint purchase would be quite costly.

We’ll need to see these little bikes out on the road. Here in Hawaii we have the little Menehunes, I’ve asked one to go get his license so he can ride with me.

Happy New Year to all.
