Hello all,
I'm selling my beloved 1973 cb125. This bike has been fully restored. I'm going to make a little list of the things that have been done to it. There's so much. I have a ton of money into this bike. I just acquired a 1974 cb550, so I want to put this money towards restoring it. Bike has 7,500 original miles. Amazing. Runs flawless. Clear FL title. Tops out around 80mph. Gets 80 mpg's. Drive for days on the same tank. Here's whats been done: New paint by Craftmaster Auto Body. 2008 Lambo Silver Tank cremed and rust free. Frame Painted Valves adjusted Carburetor re-jetted and rebuilt New tires from Japan All new rubber on pegs, kick start, shifter Custom glass Solo-seat Passenger pegs ground off 12volt blinkers Polished front forks, timing cover, clutch cover and chain cover New chain Theres so much more. Just ask. I would like to sell this locally before I put it on ebay. These small cafe' bikes are getting really popular and sought after. Especially in this condition. Looks showroom new. $2200.00

You know, people might giggle at the 125cc's but the ting is peppy. It's lost about 50 pounds less then the factory weight, wet. The gigantic lolly-pop blinkers, the huge factory seat, the rear pegs, trimmed front fender, stock muffler, giant tail light/license bracket, handle bars, mirrors and rear fender are all removed. I'm 140lbs and this is faster then my step-dads Harley 883.

and your correct on them becoming more popular and sought after by collectors, however those being looked for most are ones in mint condition and everything as stock as you can get if I had the money, Id buy this in a heartbeat. ------------------------- check it ! another ride ------------------------------- I think we have a new breed of "armchair" hero, kennesawcon is an "armchair patriot" |

Nice work!
I had a '79 CB750 F2 until I broke it in half against a tree. Those are great bikes for the money. That thing would rock for cruising around beachside. |

That bike is so rad! Picture roadracing that thing...it weighs nothing and is probably amazing in the corners!

Mikey, that's a beauty! Makes me want to bust out my copy of "On Any Sunday" and watch the "Isle of Mann" segment. Wish I had room in my garage. Maybe I should sell some boards and bikes.... Free bump!

I had a CL100 1972 growing up and I loved that bike. we converted it to woods bike with a big rear tire. That CL would still be running today if my friend's brother hadn't missed the refill after an oil change.
a friend inherited a 70's 3000 mile CB750 and his the auction selling it on abay ended over $12K. He was thinking it was worth 1200. buyer sent his own freight guy to package it up.. ------------------------- it's never too late to have a happy childhood... |
