<p>1972 HONDA CB 750K2 Off Frame Resto-Mod</p><p>This 1972 Honda CB-750-K2 Off-Frame Resto-Mod was expertly transformed into a sleek cafe-style bike. Featuring the revered SOHC motor from a 1978 model with a stock 61 millimeter bore, this beauty boasts only 20,100 miles on the clock at the time of restoration. The heart of this machine beats with a Kerker 4 into 1 Exhaust, delivering an awe-inspiring sound that matches its remarkable performance. Having undergone a meticulous restoration, this motorcycle has traveled approximately 500 miles since its rebirth. Every aspect, from bolts to body, received careful attention, ensuring authenticity and excellence. The entire metal structure was stripped and refinished using premium PPG paint products. Components like the wheels, spokes, and fuel tank underwent thorough rejuvenation, including a deep fuel tank cleaning and sealing process with Caswell Sealer. No detail was spared in the mechanical restoration either. The engine received a comprehensive service, with new gaskets, seals, and valve adjustments. Carbs were ultrasonically cleaned and meticulously rebuilt, while the electronic ignition system was modernized for optimal performance. Additionally, a plethora of new components were integrated into the bike, ensuring reliability and functionality for the long haul. This masterpiece isn't just a showpiece—it's meant to be ridden. The wheels and spokes are in excellent condition, Fuel tank was deep cleaned to bare metal and then sealed with Caswell Sealer and the petcock was completely rebuilt with new seals. The front master cylinder and the front caliper was rebuilt with new rebuild kit, new brake line and the brake system was finished using DOT5 silicone brake fluid Front pads and rear shoes replaced with new parts. The forks were rebuilt with new seals and new fork boots. The motor restoration was a complete deep service of all new gaskets including head gaskets, O rings, valve seals, and the valves were all reseated and adjusted and the carbs were completely ultrasonically cleaned and rebuilt, vacuum gauge balanced and set up for filters and headers, the motor was stripped and cleaned and repainted the original Honda silver color. </p><p>The bike has a completely updated electronic ignition system with stainless ACL 8mm wires a new sealed battery with a trickle charge wiring harness for quick battery tending.

1972 BMW R75/5 /5 in Norcross, GA
$10,900

Used 1972 BMW Classic / Vintage

R75/5 /5
<p>The year 1969 was a tumultuous time in the motorcycle industry, marked by the rise of the Japanese and the beginning of the end for the British. Amidst this backdrop of rapidly evolving consumer sentiment, BMW introduced its /5 (“slash five”) Series for the 1970 model year. In its three years of production, the /5 family of motorcycles reinvigorated the brand with its contemporary design and ushered in BMW’s fabled “Airhead” Type 247 Boxer Twin engine, variations of which would continue to propel the marque’s R-Series motorcycles for the next 25 years.</p><p>The /5 Series, built at BMW’s newest facility in Spandau, Berlin, was available in three variants. The R 50/5 (500cc) was the most affordable, the R 60/5 (600cc) was the midrange, and the R 75/5 (750cc) was the top of the line.</p><p>Compared to its predecessor, the BMW /2 Series, the /5 Series was a thoroughly modernized ground-up redesign. It boasted up-to-date 12-volt DC electrics complete with a 180-watt alternator, an electric starter, more powerful drum brakes, and a slew of other noteworthy upgrades. The frame was of tubular steel construction with a double downward cradle for the engine, similar to the benchmark Norton Featherbed. A rear subframe was bolted onto the mainframe and served as the upper mount for the twin rear shocks. Up front, the former /2’s Earles fork was replaced with a telescopic fork on the /5, signaling a functional change of focus from utilitarian sidecar duty to improved handling as a solo motorcycle. At barely over 460 lb, the R 75/5 was one of the lightest 750cc bikes of the era, and with a top speed of 109 mph, it was one of the fastest as well.</p><p>The classic BMW motorcycle community is an active one, with abundant technical support and a well-organized network of enthusiasts (aka “Airheads”) who gather regularly to celebrate their favorite machines. Parts are still plentiful, BMW still supports /5 models and the aftermarket parts supply is thriving. The BMW /5 is in my opinion the most practical and roadworthy “Classic” motorcycle you can own.</p><p>Our BMW R75/5 has received a comprehensive frame up restoration. All painted parts have received a high quality base coat/clear coat with perfect hand applied pinstripes on tank and fenders. The engine has been completely rebuilt with many upgrades to enhance performance and reliability. We have stacks of receipts for work done , too lengthy for this writeup. The photos simply do not do justice, call John to schedule a test ride. 770 447 6945 x 20. world wide shipping is available.   </p>

Stock # ScottVintage078
1972 Kawasak KX125, AS-IS<br /> <br /> 1972 Icon Cold Dead Fingers <strong>1972 Harley-Davidson Sportster</strong><p>What do get when you cross huge sums of horsepower with swiss watch reliability? We’re not sure, but it definitely isn’t Cold Dead Fingers. Fingers is more like an unholy mashup between early Lynrd Skynrd, a Taurus® Judge™ and a aluminum bass boat. You know not that much power, not very comfortable, and of questionable practicality but she can catch, clean & cook a mean catfish. Yeah, Fingers is a lot like that. She’s powered by the high water mark of HD engineering the 1972 Ironhead Sportster. A kick only, right hand shift, 1000cc double-lunged homage to the American dream. Equally at home on a post-war interstate or blue groove oval, she defies your petty classifications. Upgraded to period correct competition standards R6 forks, Kawi wheels, unknown rotor and the finest Kenda meats $60 will buy she stands ready to enact the mercy rule on any would be doubters. Straight from an era defined by easy love, greasy locks, and piles of blow you’re welcome to take her for a ride if you can pry her from our Cold Dead Fingers.</p>

Used 1972 Honda Classic / Vintage

CL 175 175
<p>1972 Honda CL175 Scrambler. Very Nice original bike in excellent condition. Runs great. This bike is a time capsule !! The mileage on it is currently 5052. Perfect bike to enjoy , ride , and take to shows. The gas tank and side covers have very nice original paint with a minor scratch on left side (see pics). The seat is in excellent condition, as are all the gauges & plastics. Very nice original chrome throughout on this bike.  As is very common with these 1970's vintage Hondas, the muffler does have 2 small holes at the bottom (this was common on bikes that didn't run enough to burn the moisture from the exhaust before being shutdown ...the moisture combined with thin metal in the muffler would rust right thru in no time).  There are still a few NOS mufflers available on the internet for this bike, so this could be resolved if desired.  This bike even still has its original Owners Manual under the seat in the tray, and original toolkit in the blue bag inside the toolkit holder. This bike runs good and is fun to ride around. Fun, lightweight, easy bike to ride. It has both electric start and kick start.  Its getting very hard to find a classic Honda, over 50 years old like this one, still in this nice original condition.</p><p>Clean and clear OH title in our name, in hand.  We can have this bike delivered to you nationwide (except HI and AK).</p><p>Stop by our showroom in Xenia, OH and check it out. Or send any questions you have for a quick reply.</p><p>Williams Vintage Cycle - Xenia, OH<br>937-376-0424<br>www.WilliamsVintageCycle.com</p><p> </p><p>**Our description of this vehicle and any inspections performed are solely for the purpose of providing the customer with a fair and honest assessment of the vehicles condition at the time of inspection.
