Long time bike nut, since 1967. Currently riding a 1981 Goldwing and a 1973 CB750K3, that I bought both new. Considering selling one of them to get a different toy. Wanting to be in the 900cc+ range.

 

Welcome to the forum and it sounds like you are shopping for a liter bike.

 

Well if you want a reliable and soild bike get a CBR1000RR, compared to what you were riding before, its power is going to feel like a missle with handlebars, also the 929RR and the 954RR are very torquey, and fast, and seem to be the favored bikes for stunts and such. But if your just into cruz'n any Honda bike thats 1000cc's I am sure you will love.

 

Hello & Welcome!!

 

Welcome to the site....good luck in the shopping.

 

Welcome and hope you get the bike you want soon....we have plenty O members that will be glad to give you their opinions if you have questions

 

welcome! wow... that's a LONG time to own something especially bikes because most people i know switch/trade bikes every few years. that great you've had 'em that long though

 

Well, there have been other bikes in there. These 2, I just always kept. I was going to sell the 'Wing and keep the '81 CBX but(owned since '83), I thought the 'Wing would be better for my wife to ride on. Then she said AFTER I sold the low mileage CBX, that her back really bothers her too much to ride. NOW she tells me! I had a '67 Triumph TR6R, I did a frame up resto on and sold ( way to rich for me to keep it!) and there was a '70 500 Kaw, way back when. I sold my last dirtbike recently, an XR350R after a string of 30yrs. off road and about 6 dirtbikes. Not knocking other brands of bikes but after having them and then going to Honda, I never looked back. No more dirty hands, just wax rags for the most part. I will admit, I have struggled with exactly which bike to get. I always thought the larger CBR were bigger and I like a larger cockpit. But they really seem to be close to the same in size over the 600cc bikes. A 929RR went past the office today in red and white. I fell in love all over again.
When I buy something it is because I love it and see no reason not to keep waxing her and loving her. I have had a '62 Corvette longer than the '73 CB 750 K3.

 

lol... so you're a crazy nut just like the rest of us

you should start a gallery. we'd love to see your collection!

 

Well, where would I post pictures of these non-CBR toys?
