The Search

I got chatting to a "out of towner" the other day and he saw I had a bike or two .It told him I was always on the lookout for a "Barn Find"
He told me a mate of his had 2 cb 750's under the shearing shed that he wanted $1000 for the both of them .Was I interested ??
Who wouldn't be .
He left me the guys phone number and said to ring him . That night ,I did .
Hi Carl ,I believe you have 2 Hondas under your shed for sale ?

$900 for the pair .
Were they CB 750's ?????

Thanks Carl ,
What a difference a letter makes

Bugga.

It's like having a hot lead on a Katana only to discover that is the unloved (by me at least) pop-up headlight 750 model.

You rich bastard.
I dream of the day I can afford a 750 pop-up.

And when I was young I had to get up 2 hours before I went to bed and had hot gravel for breakfast.

The 1st motorcycle model I made to keep my mind busy after my knee operation in 1991, unfortunately most likely the closest I'll ever get to owning one
