Hey there,

Let me just start off by saying this is a great forum. I had a lot of questions to start off with, and slowly I've been widdling them away by searching previous posts.

A little about me, I'm a photographer (mainly assisting at the current moment, but I'm going to take a big step in the next 6-8 months and start off on my own), I went to school at the Brooks Institute of Photography and l graduated last June with my BFA. You can check out my stuff on my signature if you feel like it. I'm 25 years old and moved back up to Washington state after graduating.

I just finished (haha funny word right, ) an '03 SV650S, the list is to long, here's a simple snap though,



Recently I happened on some shots of Dick Mann's '69 CR and I was awe struck!

I'm looking for a '70-76 CB750k that I can tear apart and start from the ground up. My mind is ticking over,

Thanks for a great place with a ton of information on it.

All the best,

Nice lookin' bike.  Good luck with the hunt for the K!  What's that picture in your avatar?  Looks like a random shot of a wall with part of a cabinet?

Haha, it is a random shot of a wall with a cabinet,

And thanks for the compliment, I'm hoping that I'll be able to afford the K by mid summer, along with some other parts.

I have a pretty good idea what I want to do with it though. They're such awesome bikes.

The Seattle area has a very active Craigslist community.  Keep your eye on the motorcycles section and you should be able to find a decent 750K pretty easily.

Thanks man, I keep an eye on the Portland list as well, and a local forum (PNW).

My little brothers are addicted to craigslist, haha, so I'm covered on a few fronts.
