This thing looks like a fantastic example of a V65,and it's just South of Grants Pass,you could ride it home... If I didn't already have 3 Sabres in my garage I'd be all over it... ![]() More power than any reasonable human should want on 2 wheels,and the Sabres handle well,too... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda...317|240%3A1318 |

| Pit Crew Joined: Apr 2009 From: Roseburg,OR I Ride: 1984 Naked Goldwing 1200,1984 V65 Sabre | Go get it,Paul.From reading the ad I got the impression that if you went and rode it,you could probably offer him the starting price and drive it home...Email him for a phone number...Then turn on the charm... If you find it's too much for you,maybe we can work a trade for one of my 700 Sabres... But seriously,25 years old,less than 10K miles,121 bhp,6-speed tranny,triple discs,what's not to obsess over??? If you test ride it,make sure it doesn't pop out of 2nd .... If you want,I'll let you take my Sabre for a putt next time we meet,so you can see how they handle...

Besides,when you start out on an "Appalachia" or whatever that thing is called,it's bound to warp your judgement just a tiny bit... ![]() All kidding aside,I am putting all my good Karma toward having it work out,as per your PM...

| Moderator ![]() Joined: Mar 2008 From: Roseburg, OR I Ride: to be determined | ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Seriously, thanks for your kind thoughts. For the record, I've always liked Honda. My first ride was a 1980 Hawk. As long as Kevin doesn't come along and foul my plot, there may be a happy ending. Well, happy endings include RSVR Factorys and things like that. But as good as can be considering my circumstances. |

| Pit Crew Joined: Nov 2008 From: Myrtle Creek, OR I Ride: HD 1200C | Ohhh, the evil moderator can bust a rhyme! ![]() I was sort of looking at that one Sabre that doesn't keep 2nd gear. How about it Kirk? You know much about the trannys on the darned things? Lets see, project bike or horses to the dentist? Decisions, decisions... ![]() Gwen |

She wrote in her novel that the heroine missed 3rd in shifting a Ducati Monster. Uhhh, bikes don't have shift patterns like cars you nimrod! Do some stinking research before you write it! ![]() Gwen |

| Pit Crew Joined: Nov 2008 From: Myrtle Creek, OR I Ride: HD 1200C | I tried on the naked ninja this afternoon. Scary how nice that one fits. I like the blue too. Then tried a couple the other sport-type bikes they had at Hobies. Now, gotta get the sporty paid off, get a real job, sell a horse, maybe some sheep... A 2nd bike in the yard might be a nice touch. Hmmm, gotta get a bike barn thingy too. None of them should have to sleep out beneath the stars every night. Gwen |
