Greetings Rusty1 from Colorado. Where in WKY? I grew up in Paducah, Lived in and did school in Murray for 1 year before heading off to UK then spent 18 years in Lou-A-Vull before heading west.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Rusty,

Small world. Lived on N 24th and did the PTHS thing. Got my start at the old Cardinal Drugs. Went to PCC. Bought a '68 CB350. Partied and got drafted. Came home. Went to PCC. Partied. Worked at Party Mart. Worked at Carbide. Partied. Bought my '75 750F in Huntingdon, TN from Pug Vickers because old man Evans wouldn't match the price or put it together for another week. Too much partying. Went to Daytona in '76 and blew up the bike. Got married. Decided I needed to leave to for my own sake. Went to Murray then UK. ETC. Kinda rebuilt the bike (wasn't very good then nor did I have any cash). Decided the world was too big to stay put after being in Louisville for 18 years. Now I've been in Colorado 10 years and I've ridden 30,000 miles all over the west and into Canada twice. 

Are the Paducah women still as crazy as ever? May have to come visit again.  :o

Rxman,

Well, Cardinal and Partymart are long gone...Harbor Freight is in the Pmart location. 

Bbridges,

Welcome to the forum.  Nothing like an old Honda......
