^nice find Mike, thanks for sharing and please keep us updated on your restoration, I'd be one who'd be interested in following on that journey.

Geez, I'd would've loved for my dad to buy me a CB200 when I was 10 years old, so that I could turn it into a cafe racer too!
I hope this kid hangs on to those big dreams of his and make them into goals (since goals are dreams with a date .

Today's efforts have yielded a completely original 1978 Murray.
There is already a buyer, but that seems to be my new "modus operandi"

You refer to the CB 350 F in this thread...and I will snap a pic of it as it exists now,
as soon as I get the chance to see it. The new owner is in mid-resto now.
Funny thing,...the owner sends me a pic of it an hour after i wrote this comment...
He did pretty darn good with it...

Random thought: I need to upgrade my profile pics... as I don't have that sweet 89E anymore
Hmm... too bad I can't upgrade my profile name too.
<but I wouldn't know what to change it too >
I thought I was always gonna keep her o.O
but that's alright... she went to a good home; and it stayed within the family.
Just saw her yesterday
I need to take pics of my AF16's new home. So I can have a before and after I play with it some photos.

[Dio89Elite]

I'm not cheap! I'm just broke!
o.O

[Dio89Elite]

we should do a webbike group buy from japan... i'm sure we could do $500 in parts to get the free shipping
whose in? (and who wants to take lead? ) Has anyone bought from them?

On a separate note: Someday when I have megabuck$ I'll be offering to take lead and do many group buys... I'm just waiting on the prize patrol to find me. Maybe I'll move to make it easier for them.

and yes ... I am daily chatting with myself

Hi MM.
the bike looks real sharp, and I like it.
if I owned one I would cover the YSM name. to keep people guessing.
cover it with a wide silver strip, sort of like the one it has. but make it like two stripe the same style.
some silver contact paper may work to try it out?
the bike has that retro look that I like.

[Dio89Elite]

but MotorMike's a proud Sym owner!
hmm... I wonder if you can sell those to Sym

Although, ped has something there too.
It would take some ppl a while to guess that that's actually a Sym! o.O
and yup, here's another vote on the Retro Look rides!

Thanks for sharing! I'll post up photos when I have the chance now that MotorMike's got me creative artzy juice's flowing.

Greetings:

Um, I'm pretty sure Sym isn't touting the Wolf as an Enduro bike. Get some knobbies, at least...
