Its really neat when you get a old item you once had years ago,like this motorcycle my oldest brother bought on E-bay in 2004 it is IDENTICAL to the one we had in 1974 in every detail especially the high rise handlebars,hoping to experience tihs again when I find the red royal canister vacuum we used to have.

Oh my gosh!!

My dad just got a Honda, too! He got a Hawk GT 648, I think. It is in pretty good shape, 'specially for its age. He put a new "jet-kit" in it with some "pod" filters. I am not a motor specialist when it comes to motorcycles, but I do know that he had to apply these things to the carbureator (is that how you spell it?). So, anyway. I like the colors to your bike!! It really is a beautiful bike!!

Chuck:
I Love your Honda. Motorcycles are a huge turn on for me, I love the feel of the wind in my hair and the openess of the road. And, I like all the looks when I ride my bike.

IF I ever got a ton of money (maybe if I win the lottery), I'll call up Paul Jr. at Orange County Choppers in New York and ask him and his dad Paul Sr. to build me a custom Chopper. Perhaps a Dyson or Hoover bike?

Those were great bikes in their day.. I had the CB 350 without the hirise handle bars. Traded that of on a 76 Yamaha 650 and eventually traded that off in 1979 on a brand new Goldwing, my pride and joy which I just got rid of 2 months ago when we moved back east here. The interesting thing about the Goldwing was my first road trip with it was on May 18th 1980 and I was heading into St Helens WA on my way to SF that very morning the volcano blew up.
