Title: It's been a while.....
Post by: dafatrman on August 02, 2013, 04:54:24 PM
.....since I sold my lil' GS.  I really miss it.  Should never have sold that faithful little bike.   :cry: It carried me all the way to Orlando and back to East Texas.  Held it's own against the GSXRs I was riding with while I was there.  Well, in the twisties, anyway.

Well, I have a few.....  My '76 CB750F is very rough.  It has been on the far back burner for the better part of a decade.  It has a bent frame, no taillight or seat cusioning or MUFFLER (VERY LOUD!)

I have my thrown together '86 Rebel, my main ride for the gas milage.  I put a new oversized tank on it.  The forks are bent, no front fender, passenger seat, speedometer, turn signals or mirrors.  Heck, it has no license plate, either.

I also have a 98 VZ800.  This thing is trash.  I'm selling it today, so who cares.

I may be aquiring a TL1000 Wednesday. :icon_mrgreen:  :woohoo: :icon_mrgreen:

Truthfully, these two Hondas may qualify for the "dodgy-looking CL units" category.  I'm always broke.  All a bike needs for me to ride it is to run.  Talk to tb0lt about my old GS.  He bought it as a parts bike.  He'll tell you how rough my rides are.  It isn't about how it looks.....
