Early 80's Honda CB750F. The black one was one of the most handsome bikes
made. Last of the UJMs.
Does OK in the dirt. My header pipes got a little banged up, and my knee
dented the tank while standing up. The horn came in handy while passing
3-wheelers.  >> Stay informed about: I'm getting another bike |

Hmmm, the person who lives with the one that do break frames actually
never broke a frame as far as I know...

Me and a buddy of mine set a friend up with a nice CB750F, with header
and nice exhaust, pod filters, tuned just right. We set it up for him
only after he promised to give us 1st shot if he sold it. If he had, I
can tell you right now it'd be in my garage along with my '72 CB500.

Here's another hint. The bike I'm about to aquire had a long
production run (10 years) and is just being replaced with a completely
new motorcycle for 2008 in the manufacturers line-up.

Oh
no
I know which bike you're talking about now, and rest assured RMD'ers,
it didn't come from *my* garage!
And as far as dirt-friendliness goes, don't knock it til you tried it.
I'm sure we'll have the opportunity to see how it does in a few
months.
Free bikes are cool. Even yours, Baxter <G>

If it had a 10 year production run that ended in 2007, that means it
came out right about the time I started losing touch with new bikes.
I'm clueless.
