I think i'm gonna go the sub $2k route on a honda cb 750 for my grad school project/rat bike. 

if you guys could do me a favor and keep an eye out for a steal if you see one.  I've been checkin all the craigslists from dallas to houston and have seen a couple to take a look at this weekend.

Thanks all waytogo

Good idea Paul. If my friend sells the CB 750 he might get a Monster.

Mike, I know he payed about 2K for it so he might let it go for that much. I'm sure he wont take less than that. I'll talk to him when he gets back in town in a week or so.

Thanks for lookin out fellas and let me know bout that 750 waytogo

i went and looked at an 81 from craigslist and i'm pretty sold on goin for a cb 750.  sadly that one didn't fire.  it turned over but also had a leak in the gas tank and some decent amount of rust on parts of the frame.  looked like more work than i am after.  i mean it's gotta at least run wouldn't you think?

i'll make a post on the garage sale when i make it happen. thanks for the inquiry

Yea - in that shape they should be offering to pay you to haul it off.

I guess you sold your Huski?

Nope!  not yet anyways.  it's soo hard to let that thing go.  of course if i can get something lined up to replace it I bet it'll be a lot easier to sell it.

I'm also interested in 78-82 goldwings.  yea you read that right.  naked goldwings can be gorgeous.  like this one:   Evil
