Oh.... and i fell off my chair reading the list of bikes you have/had...  :good2:
Better sit down. Except for the first on the list I still have them all.

Hey Krusty, I've always been meaning to ask you, of all the bikes in your impressive stable, do you have a favorite?

I think that rare 4 cylinder Honda CB350f would be my pick. Only made for 2 years 1972-74
After growing up with the early CB350 twins, I really loved my little root beer brown '73 CB500 4. What a smooth little engine.

Sorry for the thread drift...
My fave ride ATM is the 84 1100. I do like the 350F but it's in urgent need of an engine rebuild. The motor was running sweet, smooth and quiet but the rings are worn. It also has a bearing noise, countershaft I think, so its off the road for the moment. I bought the GL1500 12 months ago so my wife could ride in comfort but she passed away in June. I think I'll hang on to it 'cause it was fun to ride except for buffetting. Its getting re-shod ATM, rear wheel is out. For outright GO (kookaloo) the 1200 gets the nod.
