Nice find Drab. I think you got a pretty good bike for sure. I'm probably going to buy CB77 bike here in MT that isn't nearly as nice as yours but is fairly complete. They guy told me he'd sell it to me for $700 "for sure" and I will probably offer him 500 or 600. Well see. So I'm not trying to pressure you here but the purchasing cost of used CBs seems to be a topic for sure. (see sticky). I'm sorry but I'm dying to know.

New Bike '65OK, but you gotta take location into account.
I am in LA where you can ride year round, and there is a competitive market for older bikes. Old Hondas dont last too long if they are decent and for sale So I paid about 2.25 times what you are spending on yours. (1750) In the end I am pretty happy about it. Considering any old CB in decent condition will get 1800-2500 here. But thats LA...if you go a bit further outside you can get something for less, but will have to deal with transport. There was a moment when I was thinking about going through EBay for a much cheaper "unseen" bike. But after shipping, and other hassles...it just wasnt worth it. BUT, now that I have bought one, I would be a bit riskier and demanding about where and how I get my next one. Hope it helps D
