Now I know how Josh felt when he said Bill never got a picture of him smiling. Bill can be sneaky with his camera. I mean you want to catch people being natural and not poising all the time but that doesn't always tell the whole story. My knee ain't so good doesn't bother me riding but I can't stand on it long. Might not always look my best.
Smile!

$4000 is a fair price for overall condition and original parts including the coveted OEM rear wheel stand included.
I would like to have seen the factory airbox in the pile to "return it to original" . . .
Chicks run off with these things all the time.

Back home, so a few -- OK, a bunch
-- more pix.
Captionless, but you can probably figure out who is who.

I always have some favorites from Bill's SlideShow . . .

I love hearing these impressions between Guzzi platforms. Amazing how different they are while being so similar from a motor-chassis configuration.
Is that 2007 Norge a two-valve motor?

I want to thank all of the Spine Raiders for their hospitality I really enjoyed myself. Good to meet the people behind the names. I need to delegate more time cause having one day of rain can dampen the fun (not entirely).
Great to meet you, @Kevin_T!
You must have gotten in close to a 1500 mile SpineRaid on your LeMans?

Too cool! There was talk of north Georgia and T.W.o.Suches this weekend at the SSR.
Thanks, @buellish1, for the post! Always great to hear from you!

Our PA brothers checked in, as did NC. Watching for VA and MI.
The Michigan contingents came the distance, and one rode his LeMans . . .

Other SpineRaiders showed an admirable determination, braved the elements, and returned with wet boots and appreciable stories of the day's riding . . .

SSR forecasting is coming into range: sunny, cooler with lower dewpoints.
High temp at The Appalachian Divide on the Cherohala Skyway Saturday: 67ºF, lows: upper 40s-low50s.
Y'all "Morning People" mind that windchill!
Let's just say, "That's not exactly how the weather turned out."
Some SpineRaiders kept their soft shoes on Saturday . . .

All-y'all Spine Raiders have fun this weekend!
. . .
"Welcome home, dear! Did you experience that surreal , uplifting,
transcendental, existential experience on your ride ? "
"Why, yes, darling, the ride was fun . . ."
"Did you cheat death with your awareness and skillset,
mastering the physical realm with intensity and purpose ?"
"Yes, yes. Quite fun, actually."

You built your own tensioner?
I mean, hey, I'm after those G&P!
And I would not put it past @Pressureangle to build his own tensioner . . .

That is the best looking vintage Honda I've ever seen. I always though the Honda Dream looked kind of goofy. The popular CL series with the high exhaust never looked to me as good as yours. And the lack of front downtubes makes the engine look better. The color scheme of yours is the best I've seen.
I owned a CB360 back in the day. Quite ordinary compared to your rare museum piece. The '66 version of your bike is at the Smithsonian in DC, but not a pretty red one like yours. Sign says, "This motorcycle is a 1966 305cc CB77F Honda Super Hawk, S/N 1029216 [frame #: CB77-102918]. At the time, it was Honda’s largest and sportiest motorcycle. It belonged to Robert M. Pirsig (1928-2017), the famous American author who rode it 5,700 miles from Minnesota to California and back with his 11-year-old son Chris in the summer of 1968. In 1974, he published the book Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance."
I hope you have a local bike show you can ride it to. Where was your second picture taken?

Superhawk (250 or 305?).
A local rider has several classics, most that he either restored or cleaned up some bar finds. He's got all three models of 305s, Dream, Scrambler and Super Hawk. The Hawk was in a class of its own as far as engineering and build. It's also a convertible where the controls can be adjusted and set back, it's really a bike that could easily be converted to the track and commuter the rest of the time. The Speedo/Tach is really cool.
This guy also has Bridgestone 175, Vespa, Yammie 650 KR street tracker and modern Yammie 950 v twin.
Sometimes typos are just delightful.
This one reminds me of that girl I dated in college . . .

Is my Electrosport Stator Defective?

That ticks a lot of boxes!
Perhaps a close inspection of the ring terminals at the battery to be certain none got left off. As silly as that sounds, it has happened to a lot of us.
