My first bike, 1980 CB 650 Custom

Postby canuck1sailor » Tue Jul 03, 2012 12:11 pm

Less than 14K on the clock. Seems to have no issues other than the long warm up needed (interesting article on the ignition system here) Runs great. A couple of parts missing I have managed to track down since joining this forum. Any comments would be appreciated, particularly if the members notice anything missing. Thanks.

Welcome here! :D

Very nice bike in great condition.
Exhaust, headlight shield, grips and crash bars are not stock.
Missing seem side cover decals and grab bar.

Seems you managed the picture upload. Size limits should not be that low however.

Thanks. It seems the big problem is with Safari and Firefox so I used a windows machine. If I can edit the photos I'll post larger ones. Can anyone tell me what the file size limit is?

If any one has a factory tool kit I am interested, everything else seems to be in hand.

Here in this forum you may edit your own posts later to replace pictures. :wink:
Allowed file size for sure is up to 250kb, maybe more.
