Check out Sandcast Only on Facebook. There is a lady suggesting she has this bike in “West Texas”. Note recessed key switch? But the horn appears to be on the right? Creating a feeding frenzy!!

Looks early, some serial numbers would tell the story.

CB750-1012765 was assembled in 11/69, most are diecast engines, there are a few sandcast engines in this range (not many).

Any way to find out what it sells for?  Would be interesting to see what VULTURES will do.

Turns out it is not "Sandcasted" it's a diecast.  The women is funny, says she is afraid to clean it as she was told it would damage it!  She plans to sell it on eBay...
