Got lucky

[Mikestib1_imp]

Found a new 2013 about 60 miles from home . $6600 including tax,tags, title. I wanted a 6 speed but since I'll rarely ride over 75 miles an hour and am no tourer, think I got a great bike for the money. Yosh RS3 on order. Getting it tomorrow and will have 2 days with mid 60 degree weather before the 40's will be the norm. Really excited. Had a cb750k1 in 1972. I'll be 68 soon but will never stop riding til I'm dead

Howdy Mike and welcome to the forum. Congrats on the new bike. I think you will like it a lot.

Sorry you thread took so long to come up, but your friendly moderator :hello: was out racking up some more miles which I do most every day. I saw you tried twice so I deleted one and kept this one.

G'day Mike and welcome to the forum.

2013, a very good bike.

Welcome....the red ones are faster, but then again, you probably knew that already.

Welcome Mike!

Hey Cormanus, notice how Ferret set you up to be the "bad cop..."

Yeah, I approve it; he deletes it. What can you do?

Welcome Mike, A bunch of friendly folks here enjoying their CB's! Happy to hear you're still riding. It keeps us young! Russ

What if it used to be red but isn't any more?

 

[will866_imp]

That's a great price

 

[dsinned_imp]

FANTASTIC PRICE, "including" tax, license and registration add on fees!

Congrats and welcome to the best fraternity of cognoscenti on the Internet.

Cognoscenti? Ok ..Honey, where's the Merriam Webster's?

You and I were both approving posts at the same time earlier. I approved both Mike's posts—or so I thought—but it seems you managed to delete it at the same time.

Clearly it will have slowed down.

intelligentsia; wait, that's a coffee
illuminati; no, that's from an Angelina Jolie movie

how about smart-aleck know-it-alls?:rofl:

 

[Mikestib1_imp]

I was hoping the red ones were faster as it was the only one they had!

You don't stop riding because you get old, you get old because you stop riding.

Welcome Mike! Don't worry about what Ulvetanna said about looking for speed. As a 66 year old rider, the CB is a rocket! It beats a Honda Monpal ML200 4-wheel electric scooter any day of the week!
