This was shot a couple weeks ago on Mulholland Highway. I've since fixed the too-long fork boots...  :-)
I recently restored and sold a 77 cb750f, and am nearly finished with a (former basket case) cb750k5.  This is a place to share, learn and enjoy.  I am grateful to and for 99+% of this site's membership.

I'll probably be there, I usually get to it if I can and if the weather cooperates, but I'll be on the newish 500F, I was on the 550 last year and I like to change it around on my trips around to the rallies.

Nice!  I haven't ridden either Mulholland in over 30 years.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

Have fun! Keep an eye out for a father and son duo with 2 Honda twin race bikes. They have some imaginative builds!

Nice sunset on my way home. I got the "My CB750 Book" strapped to the seat, makes good reading during breaks at work. I wish I had it while putting this bike together.

Rained mostly yesterday so hadn't  been able to ride since adjusting the clutch. Ran a tank of gas out of my KO today riding mainly country back roads down in Climax and Liberty, NC. Took this pic on Benny Lineberry road at historical road sign along the way.
