New Member with a K6

fordwrench
Hi guys ans gals. I was sent a link to this site and thought I would kick the door open and see what's here. I bought a CB750 new in 76 and rode it through the summer and had to sell it after losing my job and moving to Houston. I always wanted another K6 and 2 years ago I found one north of Detroit. The seller got it from the original owner and flipped it to me. It had been setting for many years in a heated basement so that was a plus. I took it apart and cleaned everything, replaced the head and base gaskets. I have been riding it for 2 summers and won first in class in a show last year. My wife rides and she makes some really need key fobs and patch's for motorcycles. I will post pictures and a link so you can check out all her stuff. Thanks for taking time to read my post.

Gorgeous. Showroom new. I hate to ask what you paid for it, but I'm sure it's worth every dollar.

Jebby, nice to see you here. If you look on my post's on the other site it lists most of the bikes I have. Thanks for the thumbs up on the fobs too. It looks like the guys headed to NY this weekend are going to get their ass's wet. It's rained here for 2 days and going to for another 3 days before a 1 day clearing then more rain and measurable SNOW on wed and thurs and it's headed right for them.  I mean what the heck is going on, Warm the **** up already!!!

Is this BETTER ? and what's so "Strange" about my avatar? You don't like long legged girls? It may not be PC but  it doesn't bother me.
