Well I'm in west TN (Memphis) but will be travelling to Rockford, TN on Sunday, Dec 2 to haul back a CB550 that I stole for $225. (I almost feel guilty).
 If anyone in the area would like to meet for a cup of coffee or other beverage on that day, shoot me a pm and I'll give you my cell#. I haven't done any serious bench racing in a long time. ;D

On a down note, it's supposed to rain all day Sunday. ::) :( :(
I guess that's the "extra" price I have to pay for getting such a good bike at a great price. ;)

This is definitely a LATE post, but I am in Mt. Juliet, east of Nashville..  Looking for a Cb750 right now.  My stepdad has '76 750Four S.S. that I ride on the weekends during good weather..

Just saw the post I know it is an old one, but I am in North Mississippi right outside of Memphis.  My parents live in Franklin and visit often.

I'm in West Nashville, Sylvan Park area, not a rider yet but hope to be soon.  Got my first bike last month and have yet to get it to fire.  Maybe we can share info and such.

I'm up to the challenge if you ever run into some issues! I've been through hell and back with some of this stuff, so I may be able to help.

Sup Nashville!! Just got my first motorcycle and damn if the weather has been #$%*ty for learning how to ride. I've got a '77 cb750f2. Sulfur Yellow. I keep going out and starting it even when it's crappy out and end up circling the neighborhood a few times. I can't wait for warmth.

You're brave for challenging this cold!! We get these warmer days, but it also comes with the threat of rain. Should be nicer in the next few days, so I'm sure I'll be out riding!!

Between Jacket, gloves and a full face helmet I have not gotten very cold. But I have been re-upholstering my seat, so no riding. I'm trying to get the seat pan painted and, once again, the crappy weather, rain, is keeping me from finishing it since I have nowhere to paint but outside.

There was a bike night going on last night, I believe, at Silverado's in Rivergate.

Some times you do get some harley guys that enjoy an old classic like ours. You know everyone is going to be staring because we stand out like sore thumbs at those events.

But most of those harley f'ers are just manufactured riders, only going to those types of events to flex their muscle, and stare at many bikes that look EXACTLY the same. So, they probably wouldn't even know what kind of bike we have. :D

I tend to just get lost on country roads, and stay away from the masses.

I'm not down with those Harley circle jerks either. As soon as my bike's runnin' I'll post here and we can all terrorize some Nashville. That will be soon if the rain lays off and I have time.

Sounds great!! Just throw me a PM or whatever you wanna do. It'd be nice to get a couple of us together that's in the area.

The weather is finally starting to warm up a bit and I managed to get the Yammy Triple riding reliable and pretty again.

And on top of that, I'm out of grad school for the summer with no job prospects in the near future...  If anyone is up for a ride, let me know!

I'm out until I get my bike back from the shop since by bike got hit.

Jag, were u riding down 12th ave south this weekend past the bikini car wash with burlesque girls?? I was hanging out there and I saw a bike ride by that maybe looked like yours. I didn't noticed it when it was already about gone. I did hear it though. It sounded really rough. I hope that wasn't ur bike  :-[

Nah I haven't ventured downtown on the bike yet. I usually just stick to the back roads, and the country  ;D
