what do you think?

should i just pick it up? is this worth $100 i could take the time to part it out or build a bike.

the tires are possibly in good condition so could i put those on my cb550?

is there anything on this 750 maybe the 2 sets of rims or tires that can be used for my cb550?

$100 sounds fairly cheap, but I'd go investigate further before any serious decision making happens.  There might be enough major parts there to make 1 full bike out of it all.  However, I would not expect to use those tires for anything.  Just because the poster says they look good doesn't mean that they aren't old and deteriorated.  Plus I think the tire sizes are different between the 750 and the 550 anyways.

1 good rim, good triple tree, good fork leg, good seat pan = $100.  Get it.

+1...$100 is what I paid for my stuck motor..paid $60 for my spare back wheel from the wreckin yard, paid $60 for my spare front wheel from some guy on CL, Can't remember now, but I think I paid $100 for my complete with extra wheel front end, again from CL...yeah...I'd jump on it if it was here and I had an extra $100...
