I am stricken with this addiction that causes me to buy parts for another not yet purchased CB750. First step is admitting I (might) have a problem.

There's no problem . You've been listening to the wrong voice again . I understand your need to be prepared . I too have many parts for my next project and will surely buy more this week .
Enjoy

It's kind of like buying things for decorating the room of a baby that isn't born yet, right?

You don't want that CB750 to come into your life sad and unwelcomed, do you?

I also fall into this category. I've bought some parts for both the CB500/CB750 that I dont yet have.

*raises hand*

My zrx1200 got creamed by a car bout 3 weeks ago. I was lookin for a 750 around the same time I was looking for the rex.  Now I'm back in the market.  Bid on/bought a few bits for when I find the cb now.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

 ;D I was stashing parts for my 1970 CB750 for 2 years before I "found" one. Of course after finally getting it in the garage another one came along and I bought that one too. Now I just need to find the time to get to them.
