Here is my 1975 Honda CB750.


Sorry, can't find my other pictures of it. Unfortunately, I cannot afford the insurance this year, but that means that I get to rip it apart and replace everything that is wrong with it. Up first is a new starter, then a carb rebuild with a head gasket replacement. After that I have to build new side panels, one fell off last year while I was riding. Then I am rewiring it, with new signals, flat handle bar, new headlight system, air horn ect. Maybe a paint job if I can afford it.

What can I say? I like old Hondas. I wouldn't mind a mid 40's panhead or an old Bonneville, or Indian, but I don't have the money to restore more than one classic bike at this time.

nope, chicopee MA. And I was hoping someone would call the BS. I got that off the interent. Not sure if they are in production or US available as of yet. Even when they are Ducati is way out of my price range.

Rode a Monster S4 a few years ago that belonged to my buddy's mom. Just plain sick.

You would be surprised at what you can pick up an early/mid 90s ducati for. The Monsters from that are bracket are some of the most reliable bikes they have ever made.

yeah, I jsut can't afford anything. I let a 748 pass me by last summer for 5500 with around 5k on it. Stupid. New I definetly can't even think about. But a 1098R would cure me of any and all GAS bikewise pretty quick (most likely cure me of life just as quickly )

I know what you mean about not being able to afford anything. I can't even afford insurance this year.

got 10 minutes on an S4 testrastretta Monster two weeks ago...I didn't think that smile would ever leave my face.

I currently have no bike, but I am getting an older kz400 racer (FREE!!!!!!!) that I'm going to restore into a cafe bike...as well as a 2004 Guzzi V11 sport that I might snag if my buddy lets it go... I'd love to find a Kawa W650 and doll it up like an old t120 bonnie.

Cafe racers are awesome. That is what my CB750 will be eventually.
