Some of us remember these in the dealerships.

But I think this is the one I'd rather have (again)

Looks much better in the standard HRC colours.

$37,000 for a bike?!! It is a nice bike but that is a bit much for it. How much does it cost for a Hayabusa .... $12,000 ?? You could buy 3 of the fastest bikes around for that price.
Currently own:
Red 2013 Honda PCX150

Givi tall windshield & tailbox - Lots of extra lights
Custom seat from Thailand - Bad Boy Airhorn
Takegawa Lowering Shocks - Michelin City Grip Tires

Nostalgia can be pricey.

Wow - I rebuilt this 1972 CL350 a couple of years ago, rode it awhile and sold it for what I had in it. It was a barn find so that wasn't too much. Some of the parts had to be scrounged from ebay and the biggest expense were fork parts and mufflers.
