Bought my first bike!
« on: July 25, 2005, 03:03:10 PM »
Hey guys, I just bought a 1980 Honda CB650. It has 6800 original miles and it is in good condition. I just have to get a seat cover. Check out my pics.

Yea, I know how to ride for the most part. I have yet to take it on any big roads yet. I still have to get plates anyways. I love the bike though.

It should look pretty good when you get it cleaned up.
Where did you find it?

Ahhhh...  I fondly reminisce about my first motorcycle.  It was the fall of 1918, just after World War 1.  I was stationed in La Croix de Noailles, France...  All kidding aside, Welcome to the Wonderful World of Motorcycling!
