10 speed with over drive? Sounds fuel efficient

I'm also fairly certain the CBs were chain drive

10 spd./shaft drive 81 CB 

Shouldn't this be in the Craigslist retard gem thread? 

[LowThudd]

Actually, it is shaft drive, and kinda 10 speeds. It has a dual range output shaft.

Then I stand corrected 

But still have to laugh. 10spd/shaft drive 81 CB   

Remember, this coming from a guy that buys CB's broken in half at the junk yard.

Sorry to offend anyone that owns (and loves) one of those little gems. 

Ass for every seat.

Very poorly worded. You'd have a hard time bigrig shifting through all the gears in a row. Not sure if you can even do that. It is a cool bike, but mabey I'm better off with my radian for a first bike.

It would be like speed shifting a Mack truck

What about an eight-speed dirtbike?

What about an eight-speed dirtbike?

I can't keep my feet on the pegs that much 

I come from a family of road, drag & flat trackers (Motos & cars). 

I'm like a bad science project.  Kinda like droppin' a cat off the roof (not that i've done it).

'82 CB900 custom was my first bike for 2 years.  Shared it with my old man. Never really messed with the Hi/Low ranges.  we just left it in one.  Couldn't really tell a big difference between the two.  Or maybe I didn't know what I was doing back then.  We bought it for $2k, kept it clean and sold it 3 years later for $2K    Not what I would want to ride now, but was a good bike when we had it.
