There's 10 or so of us in the Denver area that I can think of.  Probably more that I don't know of.

North of Seattle.
I see lots on the road up here and wonder if they are lurking around the board.  I've only met one member, RainyRider.
Saw a new one just Monday.  A cafe'd silver 750 w/ Honda on the tank written in Norton-like font.

1080 and 754, we live in the same town

A guy around the corner has a 78 F.
See a 75 or 6 F around lately, have not met the guy. Know of a guy building a couple of choppers, but I think he is moving.

 There should be a few more in the woodwork here, 100k population

          Over the past few years, I've only seen about 4 750Ks, a 350F and a 80' Cb650C (and I bought that one!) That's besides the "Project bikes" that I have, of course. ;D I see an occasional XS650, There are a couple of Suzuki RE5's, a couple of GS750s as well and that's about it, far as I know. :-\

0, zero, nada, none
I saw one in the back of a pickup once and followed it to the projects. Been back by a time or two but haven't seen it again. :(

I know there are three members here in edmonton, at least. Not bad for a city with maximum six months of riding weather. Ive seen quite a few sohc4s out here, and a buddy of mine has a 79 650 as well.

I just don't understand why members do not post their location. I mean even just the main town that they are near. It also would be nice if they would list their bike type. Half of the time when they ask a question, they forget to mention what bike they are talking about.
