Welcome!
I'm near Austin and just bought a 750K, so have been looking.
Check this one for $1500: [what's your budget?]

I have actually emailed that seller a few times. Let me paste some of our conversations. I really wanted to stay under $1,000. What do you guys think?
ME:
Hello,
Is this bike still for sale? If so, in your ad it says it has a few
issues. Could you elaborate a little bit more on these issues?
Thanks!
Daniel

The bike is still for sale. There is a small oil leak from a cover on the left side of the engine. A new cover will fix the problem. The carbs also need to be synced. The tool to do it yourself is $80 and I have two different manuals that show u how to do it. Never asked what a motorcycle shop would charge to do it. The neutral light also stays on all the time, not sure why. The bike runs and rides fine. It would definatly run a lot better if the carbs where synced, but I ride the bike all the time with no problems.
ME:
How many owners has the bike had? Has the motor ever been apart?
Thanks for answering my questions!
HIM:
I'm the fourth owner that I know of. The bike sat in storage for about 10 years before I bought it a year and a half ago, and it didn't have a title, but I got a new bonded title on the bike which has only me on it. I have the original owners manual, where the original owner kept a log of everything he did to the bike. It says that the engine was rebuilt in the early 80's. I'm not at home, so I don't know the exact year. I have never taken apart the engine, but I have taken off and cleaned the carbs.
