Bernie,
Can you describe the right way? I’m 6 foot and 185 pounds and
generally pretty strong for being 63 but I’m finding my CB700SC a
bit hard to pick up if it’s over.
Thanks,
Dennis G.

I don't care about cosmetics.
The tires, battery & turn signal are what need replaced for
inspection.
Everything else is clean.
I think I'm going to pass on it.
The main reason is I don't have anywhere flat to park.
I can already picture it falling over, breaking off the turn
signals & levers.
Then having to find someone to help pick it up.

Well all the things your mentioned are mostly cosmetic. How is the
mechanical shape of the bike? We all know that 24K miles is nothing
for these bikes. I think if engine, transmission and suspension
(including forks) are fine, then it might be a good deal. How much
do you need to make it road ready, except the paint?

Overall it was in decent shape, compared to my war torn 550
had a sissy bar/rack
Kelly Blue book is $1765
The negatives:
The tank has a small ding & about a 5" faded eagle sticker on the
top.
Needs tires & battery
Rattle-can painted fenders & side plates.
Torn seat
A broken rear turn-signal stem
broken mirror.
Not sure what they weigh, but it seemed a lot heavier than my 550.
Was wondering if it would be worth the investment.
I don't see myself getting a car anytime soon with increasing gas
prices.
I figure a newer/larger model would be less fatigue on long trips.
