It ran when I bought it!!

I've seen worse examples than this and wanting more money, but this one just made me laugh.  I always crack up at the phrase "It ran when parked years ago", and other variations!  Didn't every bike run at some point? ::) ::)

Now  1972 CB350FX (experimental v2.0)
        1981 CB650c Custom with '79 engine (wifes)
        1981 CB650 engine
        2004 HD XL883C Custom
        1977 Yamaha XS750D (in progress)
Then 1972 CL175
        1964 Yamaha YGS-1T
