Have 2 new tires and a seat cover coming for it and then it's going on the showroom floor at Flying Tiger Motorcycles. Complete, good title, everything works. Hoping to make a good little bit on it, need to flip a few bikes so I can get the Moto Guzzi I want. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iwp5_g46KSI Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck.

I'm looking at a '74 CB125S with the high side pipe also, right now me and the seller are 25 bucks apart but I'm gonna let it sit a couple more weeks. It started up on a cold day with 1 kick, but it needs some parts to make it totally good. I'll update if I end up with it Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck.

Hope you make something on it. my first bike as well. I bought it off my aunt when she went to Vietnam (army nurse). I beat the hell out of that bike. When the exhaust valve head broke off and the stem punched a hole in the piston it became a 125cc 'big bore' since I had to rebuild it anyway. great little bike. 05 speedmaster - 1100cc, 11:1 racing pistons, Carillo rods, thunderbike cams, ported and polished head, 2mm over intake and exhaust valves, Barnett kevlar clutch, scepter pipes, oversize manifolds, 45mm HSR's, TTP stage 4 firestarter
