    Newbie from Metro Phoenix - (although registered since 2014!!?!)

    I can tell you from experience that stripping a dressed motorcycle down to the lowest common denominator is no picnic. The 1200 Aspencade is especially tough - mainly due to a couple of hurdles: all the 1200's have the shelter side covers that flow into the fairing that look horrible once the...

    74 Suzuki T500 - The Phoenix

    Sure would like to see a positive update on this one. Fact of the matter is, I have evil memories of these things.

    Haven't been around much (yet), but thought I'd post a few shots of a 10 year sleeper that a guy spent some money on and then dropped. (I'll pick it up...when the temperatures fall off a bit in central Arizona)... A really clean CB750K5. Just in case I'd like to go back to "original"...

    '94 Vmax rolling frame

    You guys probably hate newbie's selling stuff in their first post. (I can relate). Although new here, I frequent several other cycle forae. Been riding for decades. I parted this Max out and am left with frame (no title), forks, swing arm, final drive, brakes (still working), gas tank...
