    There's some really beautiful bikes in here. Lot of hog's in here, love the chopper style but I also love my Gixxer! Maybe a Harley in about 10 years! Planning on getting an R1 or Fireblade next. Quite like the KTM RC8r, but it's only a couple of years old and a R1 is 5k cheaper..... and a better bike. So who knows!

    '50 Triumph Pre-Unit Bobber. Jockey shift, suicide clutch, free spool front hub, rigid rear, open primary.

    '57 BSA Bobber.

    Both previous bikes. Now I have moved on to an old Ford PU.

    I DO want an old Panhead or Knuckle pretty badly...

    Also have THREE old Honda cafe racer basketcases that I want to unload. Hell, if there is anyone in the Savannah area on here, I would even trade them for razors and hones...

    We're a two bike family. My wife rides a 2006 Yamaha Majesty (scooter on steroids...surprisingly quick and very comfortable) and I have an '09 Harley Sportster custom.
    The Harley is a work in process; a bunch of stuff being changed/upgraded over the winter to get ready for retirement riding all next winter.

    Nope. Total computer crash a bit ago wiped everything that I had, and I have not had those bikes for a bit now. I had been telling myself that I needed an external drive for some time, but never did it. All photos from about 04 until now and roughly 30 gigs of music gone...

    When I say basket, I mean BASKET. The CL350 need the least amount of work, with a few valve stem seals that need to be replaced, but it is still in a million pieces.

    '66 CA160 Dream, '74 CB125s, and a '72 CL350. Seriously. I might trade for razors and strops,etc. I am sick to death of looking at them.

    baskets always make a good project if all the parts are there weather they are still good or not.. it helps make it easier to find new replacement parts

    Thanks Bama. They are often called geezer glides or road sofas. Next time the local Harley shop has an open house, take one for a test ride. The only problem with owning one is serious cases of Chrome Acquisition Disorder. Good luck and ride safe.
