yep sold my 1976 CB750 today and hated to see it go but it paid for my K10 in full .
crazy part is i handed over the title and the man took it but said no need for it or even to sign it as it was no good in the UK [ have no idea how that works ] but paid me cash and just like that my bike will be loaded into a container with a sports car and "off they go" ! seems to be a big market over their for vintage bikes. Goodbye pretty bike , gonna miss you

What a beauty
It would break my heart to let that go, but I guess you can't keep everything forever.
Seems as if it's going to a good home.

That is a beautiful machine but if letting it go means you have a CB1100 free and clear

had a big block party last week and talked about selling it as some of the guys discussed its value and one buys and exports cars.
soon he called me on behalf of a London buyer and then came by to inspect it with him on the phone and paid cash on the spot after i would not budge on price . He had a car leaving and would put the bike in the container also saving shipping money .

Crazy isn't it.
My BSA 750 triple went to a buyer in Saudi Arabia ... 45 years ago.

One of my CBX's went to Australia after putting it on eBay.
There were no problems at all with that transaction

I've never been an Ebay seller so I am not sure how it works or if I would be confident of not getting scammed on a deal by selling these that way. Have to check it out I guess.
