well i took it out for a ride today about 80 miles, she runs smooth could use a tune up though. honda wants 100 bucks for a starter switch which i'll be getting next week that's really the only thing it needs, thank god for a kick starter :D starts on the first kick everytime.

Would that be a V30,V45, or the all impressive V65?

It's the V45 VF750C, also my first bike. :cry:
I need to make room for my next acquisition. :mrgreen:

That is an incredible price. I ahve a 74 cb 360, but that won't get close to the 750. Good luck with her.

They dont make 'em like they used to, I've had to kick mine a couple of times. Anyone know why they stopped putting kick starters on bikes, anyway?

One thing about these bikes is that sometimes you have to search ebay for parts, although websites like oldbikebarn have some decent parts at an OK price. Oh yea, one more thing - historic plates are cheaper and you dont need to pass inspection 8)
