After telling my boss to stick it and starting my own business I have had to sacrifice, scrimp, and basically go without. I sold my Sportster to help get the business rolling. Things are starting to look up but there is still a ton of economic uncertainty. I have had a lot of sleepless nights and many of those were about the CB11. I lived through this forum all of last year and it nearly killed me. I cant make it another year without a motorcycle of some kind.
I considered getting everything from a CB11 to a Chinese scooter just to get around town on. I have ran the entire gammit through my mind. I looked at every new bike made. Rather than get in over my head and regret it later or buy something too small I made the decision.
I finally was able to make a deal on a Honda CB750 Nighthawk!
I have searched for months for the right one. My work requires me to travel all over the state so she is going to get used not only for pleasure but as a workhorse as well.
Its coming from Michigan and I used U-ship to get it here rather than go get it. Its costing me the same as it would as if I went to get it when I factored in motel, gas ect..... Plus, its coming in a covered trailer and not in the back of my pickup. I should have it by mid next week and will post pictures when I get it. (like none of you have ever seen one
) I am excited for it to get here and I dont know why because its literally 6 degrees outside right now with snow on the ground.
I want to give a call out to CA200(the tire man) for helping me on some tire questions when I was negotiating the deal. THe CB11 is still on my want list but for now I think the Nighthawk is my smart play and will keep me satisfied. At least I will have something to ride again!!!
