I just picked this up Saturday for $500. Needed left side engine cover mounted, oil and a new battery. Barely 10K miles on it. Got it running about an hour ago. 1977 CB750F/SS. My first bike. I'm enrolled for a riders class later this month.    [/center]

 Does being a 21 year old male in college and owning toys make me more or less of a geek  Pictured are: kawi zx7r, kawi zx9r, honda 600rr, honda cbr600 f4, ducati monster, ducati 999s, ducati 998r, ducati 749s, suzuki gsx1300r hayabusa, suzuki gsxr750, and a suzuki gsxr600. The zx7r is on stands because it wouldn't stay up. iroc_dis fucked around with this message at 03:15 on Sep 5, 2006 |

Phat_Albert posted:You have no idea how jealous I am of you that you found a CB750 in that shape for that price. Thanks. I'm pretty geeked. The guy I got it from had 4 bikes was selling to make room in his garage. They each needed 'something' done to make them rideable, but nothing was very tough. He also had a '78 Honda 500CX for $250 that needed a brake lever bracket, battery and carbs rebuilt. If i had the space, time and money i would have snagged it too just to fix and sell for probably enough to pay for my 750.

Phat_Albert posted:What makes it an SS? Slightly rearset pegs, Dual front discs and single rear instead of single front and drum rear, 4-2 exhaust instead of 4-4, slightly different bodywork. There were three models:
C - Custom. Forward controls and higher bars. Lower ride height. F - SuperSport. The F was the lightest and "sportiest" bike of the line at that time.

My bike has the intake under the seat, but a lot of newer race bikes put the airbox in front of the gas tank so they can use a ram air system. In the case of that GSX-R, it would be those vents on the front fairing, near the headlights.

I'm used to a dirtbike, which has it up under the seat or generally facing away from the tire to keep mud and poo poo from flying in. So yeah, I guess he's still safe like that, which is kinda cool.

Needs more jeans and t-shirts. I don't think I've ever seen more than two or three sportbikes in one place at the same time. It's all cruisers here.

It's all cruisers here. yeah it was pretty loving crazy. There are 2 bike shops that sponsor weekly rides. This particular shop (https://www.edrperformance.com) just moved to downtown portland and this was more of a show. We only rode like 13 miles, but having 75 bikes riding through downtown Portland was pretty crazy... Here are some other pics not taken by me, but a photographer that goes on the rides named fasteddie Us pulling in, I'm on the left with my helmet on. The guy on the gsxr is the one who took that previous picture of me in his mirror  In front of the shop  We stoppd for a big group photo, although there is a better shot of the group, you can how many loving bikes there were.

This guy makes me want to puke. http://dangeruss.deviantart.com/ I know it's DeviantArt, and I hate it probably just as much as any of you, but he's got some nice bike vectors/3D models. Jesus, I wish I had about half the talent he had.
