No not to Barbers (been a couple of times now, old and new place). Im off for a road trip to Maine this weekend and then off to Japan for a month of work (and hopefully some more biking over there).

Have a good time at Barbers and good luck with selling stuff!

Sayonara,
Andy-san

Hmmm, I'd go with the 750.  The 650 always seemed to me to be the unwanted step-child.  Kind of a bored out 550 Honda just threw into the mix for a while.  No offense to the 650 folks here, just a casual observation.  :-* Of course, the 550 (my bike) is kind of a bored out 500 too, I guess you could say.  ;D  Besides, I really like the kickstarter (650's don't have them, I think) - not many bikes have them anymore.  And if you're bent on making a cafe, why buy a mint stock bike to convert?  Or would you just keep the 650 as is 'cuz it's so nice and cafe something else?  Just my rambling 2-cents...


I agree with this post- I own a 650...  It's fun and all, but the 750s seem nicer.  The 650 lacks power...

Here's a pic, but it will go away some day when ebay cleans up, so for the time being, enjoy.

That critter bike is almost tasteful compared to this one that was at Sturgis this year. The guy rode it up from Colorado, lol.
