Here's the last two I spruced up. The red one is a 1973 CL350 and the orange is a '72 CL350. Sold the red cafe a year ago. Still blasting around on the "Brat-Tracker" whenever time allows... Which isn't as often as I'd like.

1980 Honda CX500 - I believe these are actually the first Japanese V-Twins, affectionately called twisted twins - notice the narrow carburetor intake and the wide exhaust headers. Makes it nice and narrow around the knees.

Awesome bike. I've a great love for the old late 70s early 80s Honda UJMs.
 
First time I ever saw a Honda CX500, I thought it looked like a Moto Guzzi clone with that cylinder configuration?

I bought this last Friday: 1988 BMW K75S with 24k miles. It came with a new battery, new soft bag set, new Metzeler tires, and a new Corbin seat. It was well maintained by the original owner when he sold it to the guy that I bought it from. That guy put only 100 miles on it in one year. I just put 130 miles on it in 2 days.

My '09 Rocker C

Rich from Bitchin Seats in Cali hooked me up with a custom sitter and biker chick pad. I'm 6' 5, #230. Made it a whole new ride. That and a few bolt on's plus a set of Vance and Hines slip on's plus a Screamin' Eagle intake. Daytona Twin Tec Twin Tuner II richens the fuel mix and mods the timing. Cams are next. Back tire "As Big as Texas"! It's so comfy and rides like a dream.

From Wiki:
The first Kawasaki triple was the 500 cc H1 Mach III, introduced in late 1968.[1] The original H1 was unique for using a CDI ignition which operated through an automotive style distributor. The H1 offered a high power-to-weight ratio for the time, but had generally poor handling and weak drum brakes front and rear. It was the quickest production motorcycle at the time. When motorcycle journalists expressed some disbelief, Kawasaki suggested they take a new H1 to the drag strip. Using a regular production model with only 7 miles on it, Tony Nicosia ran the quarter mile in 12.96 seconds at 100.7 mph (162.1 km/h) for the press to witness. The official figure was 12.4 secs by Mike Wenzel - quite believable on a well run in machine. Tony Nicosia set many world records with Kawasaki triples over the following years, including some land speed records at Bonneville Salt Flats.

In 1972, the 750 cc Kawasaki H2 Mach IV was introduced and was essentially a scaled-up version of the H1 500.[2] A stock H2 was rated at 12.0 secs for the quarter mile. Updated with more power and better front disc brakes, the H2 became the undisputed king of the streets, even beating legendary muscle cars of the era such as the Plymouth Hemi Cuda. It was notoriously dangerous, being prone to up-and-over wheelies and speed wobbles. The dangerous handling characteristics arising from its mediocre frame design caused it to be nicknamed the "Widowmaker" by motorcycle enthusiasts of the 1970s.

No Jive! I got to hop on a friends 750 once. Being a 4 stroke rider I bogged it a little taking off. Overcompensated and twisted the throttle a touch. It started to wind up a bit and HOLY MAN OH MAN! I was looking at the stars!! It rode like a feather and acted like the front tire was filled with helium. What a mean bike.

Recently sold my 07 Ultra Custom so this is it until I find another something else.
I keep this one as it is my first - modded/Buell heads, re-shaved flywheel, Westco pistons, mod cams, SE carb, SE-II pipes, and a handful of other mods and do-dads. Being my first, can't help taking her for a spin on occasion. Been more done do her since the pics - just haven't taken any newer pics
