My high school wrestling coach had a 76 or 8, rd 400 he bought new, it was still sittin in the same spot in the 90's that in was sitting in during the 80's. I went over to try and talk him out of it and it was gone, he sold it for $300.00 with 5000 miles on the clock :'(

Wow, I love that Duc, can't argue with the price either.  Come on Mick, how many times do you see an 900SS on the road?  They're usually in someone's garage or being picked for parts.  Kudos for at least getting it on the road.
Just call me Timmaaaaay!!!

Here is one by GreatScott.. Talked with him a few times. Awesome guy. And I love the look of this bike especially those air filter/pods..

Cafe Racing is mainly a matter of taste. It is an atavistic mentality, a peculiar mix of low style, high speed, pure dumbness, and overweening commitment to the Cafe Life and all its dangerous pleasures. I am a Cafe Racer myself, on some days - and it is one of my finest addictions. ~H. S. Thompson~
