Just wanted to say hello & introduce myself while taking a short break from reading all the info posted here...Sooooo much to read.

I've had a 1979 CB750L for a few years, bought it as a second bike to my 2000 FLHRCI. I was looking at a CB900C that I missed out on when I found the 10th Anniversary Edition at a price to good to turn down. Original paint in great condition.
I had a college classmate up in Boston that bought a CB900C right after that & I told him to let me know if he ever wanted to sell it. Well, last week he did & I did. It was delivered Sunday. I put the stock seat back on it waiting on the title so I can get it registered.
Now I have to sell a Suzuki GS1100e that I bought after a friend's father passed away. He was doing a frame-off restoration on it as it was the first street bike he had ever owned.
Anyway....back to reading....

You'd think so but the PO had so much in the restoration that his widow couldn't sell it. It sat for years until I bought it off her for more than I can sell it for. He had 3 Harley's that she sold rather easily but this E was a pet project.
I need the garage space & the CB's are here to stay...

That's a nice stable of bikes you got!



We ask that members keep pic sizes to 640x480 if directly displayed in threads. Yours were on the big side so I changed them to links.

Sorry about that. I have some older pictures on Photobucket with no idea what size they are or how to reduce them. I'll use links to stay on safe side/size here.

No problem, just stick to links (or clickable thumbnails). Photobucket makes clickable thumbs pretty easy. They give you the code for it. Just paste the whole chunk into your post.

It will look like this:
