Who rides a vintage streetbike?

[gene03079]

I ride my 175 all over. Also ride my CB550 every weekend. I still love the old bikes.

I am in the process of rebuilding a 1964 Ducati Monza Jr. Gotta love the old bevel engines. I picked this up on a lark and decided to make a fun project out of it. My current goal is to get it on the road for less than $1000 including the purchase price .

Hopefully have it roadworthy by next spring.

AWESOME PICS!!

Please post up the finished phots when you're done.

How much longer?

The knobbies came with it. Previous owner used it to get around his farm.

I love the old CB look but I'm thinking about going through this winter and doing something like this with it...

CB125S - well mostly


Jerseygirl see you at the Giro

[Paul_E_D]

Leave the knobbies and get a scrambler pipe for it. DONE!

My other ride is a 76 BMW R90/6...Picked it up earleir this year...Fun bike to scoot around on...I attached a picture, but you'll probably see a red X since I can never get pics to work...

Hey Jerseygirl, have you got any pics from the Motogiro? I was up in the area a bit and saw some really cool bikes running around. I would love to attend some year but right now all my bikes are too new.

Let me see if I can post a pic, below you may see the RD almost done.

I get confused between the SL and XL.

I grew up hotwiring an SL 70. Your 175 is a rare bird, very very nice.

I had an RD 350B Orange, mint condition back in '86 it was 9 years old and wicked quick around town.

im going to start looking for an xs 650 or something similar to build into a rat bike. something bratstyle but probably not very fancy. weld on hardtail is under $200 and everything else can be fab'd modified or had pretty damn cheap.

you have an old CB twin? trade towards this http://www.nestreetriders.com/forum/...rack-bike.html

XS750 interest you at all? I know where there is one, about 90% complete. Ran till the owner took the coils and front brake off.

[gus310]

not quite what i was thinking, shaft drive, i think the frame would be a different job than i was intending. title, price, location?

[Evil_Weasel]

i have a secret deal in the works...a real "barn find". early 1960s triumph scrambler single.

it will be mine by the end of this winter.

[gus310]

ive been eyeballing this one for a couple days now, unfortunately things have been slow at work for a few weeks now and i cant even afford the gas to get out there.

I've got a few vintage bikes I like riding. A 1975 CB400F that I restored, a 1973 CL350 in the process of restoration, a 1977 KE125 enduro and a 1983 XS650 semi-cafe'd. I'm an old school kinda guy I guess!! On the "almost" vintage side, I also have a pair of VT500FT Ascots in my collection.

Here's my vintage Honda:



It's a 1967 CB77 SuperHawk. I'm the second owner.

[duganc1717]

Hmmm, looks kinda familiar.

I misspoke, it's a TX750, I keep forgetting Yami changed the designation when going from 650 to 750 for some bizarre reason.

No idea on price, don't believe it has a title as it's way past the 15 year old mark at which point Maine won't issue a title. (I can't title my 1993 GS500E in Maine now?!) Bike is located in Southern Maine. I'll ping the owner to post up some more info if it still interests you.

That bike, only, not the exact one in that picture... Rougher shape, mufflers are rotted off, needs a front brake sourced, and as I said, coils are off.

[gus310]

im curious if i could get it registered in ma without a title, anybody know? bill of sale or a title search? im not sure how i would go about it.

if you wouldnt mind find out what he wants for it, do you know what year it is, so i can look up some info about it?

[Marc]

I had mine at Tony's TD last Tuesday. '76 RD400. Thanks to cropover20 I got some pics.

[FAST GSXR750]

Picked up a 81 GS650 dirt cheap-rust covered ,no paint just nasty looking.Spent the next two years cleaning and rebuilding front to rear.Was told it ran when last parked. Yeah it ran but didn't move as the tranny is broken-bad third gear. Guess i'll start doing that this winter/ http://i941.photobucket.com/albums/a...intageBike.jpg
