Hey everybody,  I got the tag and insurance for Big One today and went over to my buddy's house to show off.  After getting over the initial shock of how good a 16 year old bike looked he convinced me to go for a ride.  Bobby's a great friend who among other desirable qualities;  Rides a Honda RC51, Works at the local bike shop, and is a photography buff.  We decided to ride into historic Savannah and take some pictures of the bikes.  So now you guys can see some better pics of the CB than my crappy camera is capable of taking.  On the way in we took some twisty back roads and the CB had NO problem keeping up with Bobby's newer RC51,  if anything it was my own ability, not the bike's that kept me in the 2 spot ( looked down and we were doin 115 MPH at one point  yikes ).The weather was very nice and Savannah is especially beautiful in the spring.  You are all more than welcome to stop by sometime and enjoy the nickel tour and dinner at my place.

The more I see your bike the more I like it.  Bobby is a great photographer, those images are excellent.

Great report Ari - your bike is nice looking.  I'd like to see it without the luggage and windscreen - factory stock.  I really like the way it sounds to - are the mufflers stock?  At the risk of sounding judgemental, you might want to hold it south of 100 - those speeding tickets can be real expensive.

Also, that T-bucket is real sharp.

Man.  That is a good looking bike.  I love the stripe on the wheel.  It looks like it could seriously eat of some miles... quickly.

Savannah does look nice.
