buy this for just the motor… 1971 Honda CB 750 K, rigid frame custom - $750 (Rochester) <----CL
of course you see if it has go fast toys on it… and talk him down to $500 or less
Yay old bikes!
Can’t wait to ditch those hideous wheels and raise the back some and lower the front some.
did you fix your CB750?
yeah that cb350 on CL went QUICK lol, I tipped off Bobbyg1423 on it as soon as it posted (I have RSS feed from CL direct to my phone)
wrenching with Gennaro and motocrossx23 on the XS650 felt wierd using off-the-shelf parts lol. not used to NOT fabbing everything from scratch
Yeah fuck that seat and fuck Mike.
I was really jealous of all the other bikers out there, and my 750 was in pieces… I was going to slap it back together, but knew I’d have to take it apart like 10 times over the summer until I’m happy with it… So I went out for a 750 motor and came home with an '81 gpz 1100. lol
The 750 is currently bare like a 16 year old. I’ll be slowley working on that buggy until it’s perfect. Ended up purchasing a motor stand from harbor, and plan to crack that whore open… Hopefully I just trashed the rings from heat stroke, and that is the least of the damage.

^ not bad I guess, Rings are $25/cylinder… GOOD LUCK! let me know what happens and if you need any help.
Please repaint that bike lol, but awesome!
So I just bought another old bike LOL, I should probably be admitted.
Gennaro and I just went in on a '79 XS650 and shit ton of extra parts. I’m getting the bike and he is getting some good parts to finish his build. I’ll be hard-tailing it and making it a bobber. I’m thinking whitewall tires, black out the engine and wheels, and a midnight blue metallic sportster tank with a spring seat and drag bars. Sounds good.
IDK… kinda like how gay it looks
Naaa… If you have the room, why not…
I now have two vintage bikes and a motocross bike, and I’ve been shopping for a mid 200X’s sportbike for a commuter/bitch-hauler LOL
I should be out Sunday evening, except with shitty drag bars on the fucker :snky:
Nick, our garages are turning into shops.
$94 per hour labor and $50 a month storage? =p
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu cheap chooch!
I just ordered reservoir rear shocks, bar-end mirrors, a mini gel battery w/charger, and dirtbike throttle and clutch controls. fucks yeah gonna re-wire the bitch and slim down the controls by ditching the clucky stock ones and running toggle switches and dirtbike controls for cheapppppppp.
gonna fix my gas leak, repaint lots of shit, and put all the new parts on…when it’s done and rideable I’ll start on the XS650 bobber build.
Jesus, I’d be rich.
im currently choppin my 81 xs650. should be done within the next month now that i got my 636 on the road. time to hustle.
I was at the shop yesterday and didn’t see it fggt.
bumping this up, how’s everyone else’s builds coming? I should be able to ride by the weekend or so. Once the CB550 cafe is finished for this season’s updates, the XS650 is going under the knife for the hardtail. I’ve been stripping it and selling the parts to fund a sporty peanut tank and solo seat, so it’s nearly stripped to a roller/engine already lol.
