Hey Papa, yes, got her home! I've had only two opportunities to ride her because of work demands which are driving me crazy. I hope to put some decent miles on her this weekend. I don't have a decent shot of her because she lives in a one car garage, right next to my VFR and there are no good angles. Well, I may need to rethink that and get creative.

I'll follow up with some more photos soon. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the bike in person. Photos truly doesn't do it (or any of our CB's) justice. So much better than I expected and I expected a lot!

Congrats, it's a fine looking bike and I'll bet it sounds good too. The CB is a fantastic machine that seems to do everything well. I know you'll enjoy it for a long time Smile

Stay tuned! I want to do a ride of at least 100 miles before giving a ride report. Because of my work demands, I've been limited to commutes to and from work and short trips around the neighborhood. I can say that my initial impressions are that I really love this motorcycle. The suspension is a bit stiff, jarring at times, and the seat seems a bit soft, but other than that, what a great bike. The weight of it, the feel of it, the ease with which it goes wherever you want it to go, the sound of it (with the Yoshi pipe), and the fact that she's drop dead gorgeous...amazing motorcycle. My VFR is in real danger of being sold so I can use the cash for upgraded suspension, a new seat and a bikini fairing!
