    XLV750 Honda

    ...I recently found an XLV750 Honda in my shed, could never get to the point where I would ever let it go, then it blended into the back of the shed and disappeared off my radar, was a very strong running bike when I slid it into the shed. Now I feel that it is just taking up space and has become one of those things that I would need another life or one running parallel to the one I have, to have time to pull it out and ride it. It did have a charging issue when I put it away and it has also been personally customized a little, my own paint job , different pipes,solo seat. Thought I would mention it in this area of KB before I pulled it out to try and sell it... just in case it was of interest to anyone here...I am near Chch...

    I'm pretty sure there is another one owned by one of the other inmates here.
    Aren't they a shaft drive ? or am I having a craft moment

    They are a shaft drive, I believe these were the pre cursor to the RD03 Africa Twin.

    Motu is all knowing of these.

    I wish I still had mine,I was sorry to let it go.But there is only so much room in the shed,and only so much I can spend on rego and insurance.Given unlimited funds it's be the first bike I would put back in my stable.Looks like I still had a pony tail when I had mine.
