Just picked up a new (to me) 1980 CB750k to use as my DD. Needs a few things, but don't they all. I am a member of the SOHC4 forum and they have been very helpful in regards to my old NightChicken and my 1970 CB750. |

Thank you much.
What kind of windshield is on the bike in your picture? I would like to ditch my windjammer for something smaller. |

It is a Slipstreamer Spitfire. Been on several long trips with it and I am pleased with it. |

I would like to see it in person, if you don't mind. But I will need to unload my Windjammer and locate a headlight bucket, ears and turn signals. |

Well, it's quite a drive from here to Houston, but here's a little bigger picture if it helps.

Sorry OT, but I agree with Smokes and that's Miller Lite, not Bud Light.  |

Can't see well Gary! Old age!
I guess it is okay in your trunk. We have an open container law you know!
BTW, you didn't know Hoss and I ride naked?  |
