helbus - January 9th, 2005 at 08:01 PM

Yep you read right. It is automatic Honda CB750 1977 model. Imported from the States. There are a few of them here now. I bought it two years ago and have had a lot of fun cruising on it. It is pretty cool with a two speed auto.
It is in good condition for its age and has had the tank resprayed in red pearl. The chromework is marked and the seat has a split. It has new tyres only done 500miles.

It has trouble starting at the moment and it appears to need some work done to the rocker gear/cam/timing belt. It is to be sold as is without a Roadworthy and the rego is out of date today. Has new coils / plugs and leads fitted. Also has had new exhaust mufflers x 2 fitted

Rego BM573
Price $1000
Location Blackburn Vic
Phone 0403 226 999

I went from an 'old' 1977 Honda CB750 to a 'modern' 1980 Yamaha XS850

Hmmm What year were you born Steve? :) LOL

Yeah if you have a bad left hand and cannot operate a clutch it is perfect. In fact I was speaking to a guy who has a friend with only one arm (like the drummer from Def Leppard) that rides one.

I looked up some sites on the internet and in the States a lot of guys 'chopperise' them and just cruise.

The main reason I am selling it is that I seriously do not have time at all to touch it and just had to get back on a bike before it was winter again.

Feel free to u2u or ring and make a time to look at or just chat about it. It is a head turner. Just the new tyres, new coils & leads, new exhaust pipes cost me nearly $1000 a year ago. Only done 500 miles since then. This is a steal at this price. In fact I will throw in the original OHIO numberplate that was on the back of it.

did you sell this ?

Oh yeah sorry, it drifted so far off the page I forgot. I didn't get much interest, but eventually a guy rang, came that evening with cash and ute and took it on the spot.

Now I have a 1980 Yamaha XS850 triple
