Evening Gents, and Gals, my first bike.....
« on: May 05, 2010, 04:39:39 PM »
I have been posting here for a good bit of time, but I have never introduced myself, how rude of me. My name is Croix and im 23 yrs old living in Chicago, IL. My 76 CB750f is my very first bike and im pretty new to the whole scene. I have rode dirt bikes in the past, for fun, but never a street bike so I am pretty new to this. I am currently unemployed and looking for work, if anyone knows anyone hiring in IL let me know! I love working on my bike and riding it, so I am just happy I found these boards because they have already helped me more times then I can count. I am a pretty easy going guy who like drinking beer and hanging out, so I just wanted to say "Hi" to everyone.

Here are some pics of my bike, picked it up in the middle of December with 10" of snow on the ground for 800 bucks.

Don't fix it if it ain't broke!

haha I agree for the most part, the pics make it look better then it is. But not in bad shape at all, well worth the 800, i had someone offer to buy it for 1000 already, but I told them I am going to keep it for now.
