    Oh man here's another good one!

    1982 cb750 - $2100 (South Austin /Manchaca, stassney) < >








    1982 Honda cb750 odometer: 16000 paint color : blue fuel : gas transmission : manual



    If you just ask "is this bike still available", or something extremely basic, I'm going to assume you're a spam bot, and delete your post. In the subject line write your favorite color. I have for sale a 1982 Honda cb750 with only 16xxx original miles on it. Starts up and runs great. Could use a carb clean, it's a little rough on cold starts. Starts right up in the summer time. Brand new tires, front and back. Has a custom diamond plated steel seat. Needs a new ignition switch which is super cheap, and easy to replace. I picked up 3 other bikes over the winter time, so I haven't been riding this one as much. It's a super fun little bike though. Inline 4cyl. I am in no rush to sell it, so no low ballers. Feel free to ask any questions. I live in South Austin off of stassney, and Manchaca.

      I guess diamond plate is expensive?

        How could he have possibly thought that was a good idea...

          Maybe Mercedes Benz will catch the wave and start putting diamond plate seats in their most creative designs cause that's what every a$$ will yearn to sit on.

                  That's what you'd call a sport tourer. For real long-range touring, you'd need another layer of diamond plate.

                        Probably just didn't around to it. He has three other bikes to mutilate too.

                            I give up!!
                            .....I can no longer control this BEAST!!

                            I've put waaaaay too much money into this Beast:

                            1. "Rare" XV920 Chain (Yamaha)
                            2. Set in a Kawasaki Frame
                            3. Suzuki Rear End
                            4. FZ1000 Front
                            5. Rare "Race" Magnesium Rims
                            6. Wrapped Corvette Exhaust
                            7. V-Twin with Slider Carbs
                            8. Customized Pistons
                            9. Street Fighter Look
                            10. New tires
                            ....When she ran (I've only have about 30 miles on rebuild)....she ran (VERY Loud)...and (VERY fast).

                            KEY: I just can't keep her going....I'm done!

                            Will consider trade for newer V-Twin Buell

                            When she was running, I was going to sell her for $15k

                            Will consider serious offers

                            Lots of (extra) parts and GP "vintage" racing plastics (no headlight)....race only!!

                            No title. BOS and build (photo) docs to prove build....hundreds of photos!

                            Sorry, I'm at work, so no photo posting

                            BTW, in OR, need a title or you're screwed

                            Funny update on this bike. It appears to be an old race bike that a friend of mine put together back in the early 90s. He wanted a Battle of the Twins bike, but couldn't afford a Ducati, so he found a motor, chassis and suspension and put them together and raced it successfully. The current owner turned it into "whatever the heck that is". So, my friend is considering buying it back, but not for $15k. Someone who knows the current owner has chimed in, saying it does have a title now.

                              920 Virago was one of the biggest piece of crap motorcycles ever built. Notorious for eating starter clutches. Slugs they are, not collectible, not worth 1/5 of what he's asking.

                                But it looks as soft as most Corbins,I have had.
