Check out what I got for $600.00 today!!!
« on: March 25, 2007, 07:41:27 PM »
Check out what I got for $600.00 today!!! It's a 76 CB750/4 K6. It needs some cleaning, tuning, new points, and a battery then she will run like a beauty. I think I did OK.  ;D

I found a different local bike on craigslist and went to look at it today. It was is pretty rough shape and passed on it. The owner said he had some others bikes in better shape at his pawn shop. So I went to look and found this. It 













It looks strikingly similar to my current 75 CB750



All in all...not a bad day :)

Sweet score  ;D

Gotta love the pawn shops!!
When the majority of the United States population get to be 70 years old, they will finally realize what is really important. And by then it'll be too late.

Hate you!... be right back, headed to the pown shop!
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

Yep, +1 to the hate list.   ;D
And yes, that does look like your bike's neglected twin brother.  I missed a CB500 in pretty good shape this weekend for $80 (yes 80, not 800).  I was mad, my buddy told me about it but by the time I called the guy said someone was already on the way to pick it up.
