Another Michigan Rider here.
« on: July 19, 2011, 09:41:34 AM »
My first new bike was a 1976 CB750 in a April 0f 76. I road the heck out of it that summer but with the economy taking a dump and losing my job I sold it and moved to Houston. After returning to Michigan I vowed to get another one. Well here it is 2K11 and I got it July 3rd. Been polishing it for 2 weeks now and put 80 miles on it. I have 8 other bikes but like the CB the best.  It's got 18k on the clock and run as strong as my last one. I restore vintage bikes in my spare time and enjoy riding them.

Welcome aboard Verona, I'm originally from SW Michigan, born in KZoo, @ Bronson Hospital. Moved to Nebraska in 2002. Bike is looking GREAT, is that the original paint or has it been painted at some point?
