Honda CB description

This is a 1978 CB 750 with only 18,326 miles on it. The bike is like new; the Cafe conversion is not a kit. Handmade Seat, Hand-tooled (Wet Leather, Wooden Mallet knee-slotted tank) New Pipe, Chain, Sprocket, Paint, Shock Service, Total Tune, New Tires, and ALWAYS serviced by Rolf's Motorcycles in Longmont, Colorado. Can verify all numbers, past tune-ups, back to 2004 when I bought it as an all original CB. I decided to have the Cafe Conversion build on it and it came out awesome. It turns heads and lights.  
I took this sweet bike and made it the best Cafe out there. Some details (as in paint on clutch and brake handles, but thats about it) are left on it- but this bike is not only sweet- but the 78 OVHC engine ALONE is a bullet proof power plant is so very smooth and such a good, no problem engine.
Once the build was complete, I found that the bike does not fit me. I am 6'2 and it is just a little small for me. Barring that- I would keep this head and light turner. I love bikes and I love this one. 
Thats pretty much the rundown on the bike and why I am selling it. :)

Rides, Runs and Looks like a Champ. Im gonna miss her.

The logical choice is to introduce a new small-displacement class.

A Sikh in Ontario, Canada, has lost his challenge to the $110 ticket he received back in September 2005 for not wearing a helmet while riding his Honda Shadow.  Baljinder Badesha, 39, claims the Ontario helmet law is “100 per cent” discrimination no matter what the safety issues are when riding without a helmet. We cannot put anything over the turban, it is against our religion.  Mr. Badesha said outside court.
