    2 inch lift. LED fog lights (Cali fab) Alpine head unit. Kicker door speakers. Skar subwoofer.
    Whats up everybody? First off, my name is Anthony and im a senior in High school. My dad said that since im not going to college (joining the electrician union) and hes willing to get me a toy. It was either a motorcycle or a 4 wheeler. So i decided why not get a bike. My freshman year i rebuilt a 1972 yamaha ct1 with my friend on the weekends.
    Im looking to buy something old but cool. Like a cb350 but something not as common. Something that most people dont see everyday.
    Any ideas? Any one have anything for sale out there? Help a fellow tw guy out!

    They only made them a couple of years. They're light and nimble, but are 2 smokers so they make a lot of power for their size

    Lol I like Dad's logic... "since you're not costing me 30k a year in school I'll buy you something!"

    Best of luck on finding a bike, and in getting your career going!

    Really cool bike. I have always been a rocket guy myself but my first bike was an '03 R6 Limited Edition (black with red flames). After that, they have all been liter bikes. In total I have had about 8-9 now. Fuel injection is super nice to have on these FYI.
