Long time reader, first time poster here. I've been riding an '88 Shadow VLX that started as a bucket of parts since 2008, but always had the itch for a 70's CB750. After getting serious on Craigslist these last few weeks I came across a '74 for $200 outside of Nashville, and I couldn't pass it up. She's been sitting outside in clay for 12 years and it shows, but my VLX looked worse when I started, so I know this project is doable. Almost everything rubber is rotted, the engine has a nice layer of algae on it, and the wheels appear to be solid rust. On the plus side its a complete bike and the wiring/frame/lights are in great shape. Not sure which direction I'm taking her in, but I'll keep every step of the way posted on here, along with the multitude of questions I'm sure I'll have.
