For sale:

1982 Honda CB750SC
8900ish miles
Tires have less than 100 miles on them
Battery is less than 1 month old
Includes saddlebags
Recent oil+filter change
Includes original seat as well as the make-shift custom one pictured
Can include front fender and a sissy bar and the original badges from the tank and front fork as well if somebody wants them, but they're at my friend's garage about a half-hour drive away.



Almost road-ready--in fact, you could ride it around the block for a test ride.

The only significant problem it has is the charging system.

Good news is, I've replaced the rotor, stator, and regulator/rectifier, (several times each in fact!) and the battery just a month ago. I am certain that the rotor, stator, and reg/rec currently installed all function properly.

As a service manager of a motorcycle shop, I can say confidently that you will find all three of those components (which make up the majority of the charging system) are in perfect working order--but the bike still doesn't charge when the engine is running.

Bad news is this means that replacing parts won't fix the problem--somebody has to actually take the time to logically search out what's making this system malfunction, which I simply haven't got the time to do (working 70+hrs/week). I think it's likely the brush plate or some of the connectors/plugs on the wiring harness.

It's loud-as-f*$k and the engine is solid. Starts up easily, will ride nicely around the block but after about fifteen minutes, the battery will be drained and you'll have to charge it again--until you figure out what the hell is wrong with the damn charging system that I'm sick of tinkering with.

Will accept 25 BTC. Will update price if BTC decides to be particularly volatile in the near future, but I've priced it low in expectation of BTC value going up. If I were selling it for USD I would list it at $3000. If you think that's not a reasonable price, make me an offer, but take into consideration that it's prime riding season, and it's a CB750, and it's got brand new tires, and it's "cafe racer" style which is rather desirable right now. Pickup in Weehawken NJ (07086).

Or if you decide for some reason that you can determine I am trustworthy, and you send payment up front, I will tow  it anywhere within 20 miles of 07086 for a fee of 1BTC+0.1BTC/mile.

Here is an older picture with the saddlebags and the original seat (which are both still available) and the original exhaust (which is has now been shortened)

A properly secured wallet with bitcoin is in my opinion the safest, most secure, best all-around bet for holding wealth at this moment in history. Go ahead, call me crazy. They've been calling me crazy since 2013.

Some additional information--

1. I have the clean title in hand.

2. I will consider any reasonable offer even if it is lower than my asking price.
