Nice pic of the B-47 swept wing pylon engine nuke bomber. Arguably the grandmother of all modern jet plane designs. Good looking bike too!
 
This one?

Yes, that is the one. I Traded it in at Aurora Honda about 14 years ago for a NT700, and Aurora Honda gave it to the museum to display. Aurora Honda has a benefit ride every year out to the Museum in the late Spring.

I took a close look at it as I had a Vetter Quicksilver on my Yamaha 650. :thumbsup:

It was the second 1979 CB650 that I had owned as the First one I bought brand new left over in Feb 1982 as my first ever motorcycle. I tried to set my second 79 CB650 up as close to my first one. This picture is of my first and the only pic that has survived.

I pulled the :bl13: out of the garage and did my 50+mile loop to the gas station. ;)

This time, I even stopped and took some pictures! :)

The whole ride was about 52 miles.

I'm thinking of riding the 2004 up to WeSTOC this year. :think1:

I also had a 82 V-45 Sabre, but in Red

My brother, Dave, wore out 4 different V45 Sabres, 3 82's and a 83, (that I sold him, before I bought that Canadian V45)!

They were good bikes, as long as you knew how to work on them! ;)

Before our ST1300s, we both had 84 V65 Sabres.

Mine was on the right, and yes, it was an 84, I added the '85 plastic/tank to it. ;)
