Holy crap!  The Craigslist cb750 in San Antonio is nice.  If it was close to Denver I'd drive tonight to get it.

yeah the Thread with all the famous lines is a cool thread.  Seems like its always either has a fresh top end, or the carbs just need cleaned.

I dont worry about if they run if the price is low.. just deal wiyh it, part of the game.. When you look at the bike, ask yourself is sum of the parts are worth the asking price.. if they are..you jnow what to do..

 And yes, I meant what I said earlier in a nice way.. hate to see your trapline invaded from someone nearby, cuz they noticed you seem to have a good supply..

agreed! 
I always sum up the parts as if the engine is junk and see if theres anything i need and can part the rest and get my money back.  Sometimes you save money on high dollar items that way.   I try to sell stuff on hear for a really good deal unless theres no interest and/or i have a high dollar item that will pay for some of my project.   cant wait to get my frame back from the painter.
