That is really good advice. I'm starting to really see that about repairs on bikes that need "one or two things" to get them running - one bike needed a petcock and though the bike was pretty cheap, the new petcock was around $100, so, that right there prooves your point!

I've found a 1965 CB77 that untill today I was pretty gung-ho on, but a buddy of mine at work who owned one had a few things to point out about it that made the deal look a little l...
