That was my bike!!! I had one and it's very well engineered!
-
@likebikes665 I plan on building one into a bobber.... theres nothing wrong with that!
-
I bought one new in 1976. Late 70s, my brother did some damage, so it wa s rebuilt with a hog wheel, mid-rise bars and MCM 2-into-1 headers (with removable baffle) ... rode and sounded GREAT! On of the best engineered bikes in my book. Maintenance was so easy, and, it didn't leak like my BSA! Great bike, my friend!!!

Neat old bike. My older brother had an '80, and I enjoyed riding it. Take care of it and it'll go 75,000 miles.

What kind of RPM's does that turn at 70mph? Growing up my dad had that exact '76, bought new and sold it in '01 and it was still a great bike. Neither of us can remember the RPM's for some reason. Wanted to compare it to the new yamaha 650's of today. I feel like the old ones were faster than the new ones like I have. We could get the '76 over 100 no problem, the new v star won't. The v star is much heavier I assume but the '76 seemed much faster in taking off too.

Nice one, I've got the same bike, same color and all, it's sitting in VA, 1976

the old stuff will run forever , im poor so i have always had hand me down stuff, they had 4 wheelers i had 3 wheelers they had new bikes and i had hand me down old stuff,... all in all the old stuff runs better with almost zero maitenance unless you buy a shitty Harley Davidson, thats a nice bike i would love to have one like it in 30 more years if you treat it right it will still run

Hold onto that bike. Don't ever sell it because some scenester will rip it to shreds to build a bobber or some crappy chopper.
Nice bike.
