That's a really nice looking bike. I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
Is it from a local deler? Mind sharing the price? I'm in the market for a cruiser myself.

yes it is from a dealer 16 miles from my house and 2 blocks from my job
Last he said they went up to $2350 Fortunately I am getting a lot cheaper because he is sticking to the first # he quoted me... |

Unfortunately the Legend did't pan out...
I bought this instead:
It is a 1983 CB1000 Custom 10 speed transmission.. Who knows ...I may get a Legend later on down the road.... |

With it having 1000 CC's WHY would it need a 10 speedtrans.. seems like overkill... But it is a Honda, and should be a great bike.
Congrat.. on finding a nice used one.. Ken |

That bike was built in the era of power cruisers. The ten speed gives you a low range for boulevard cruising and romping of otherbikes and then you can switch it to high range for fuel economy and highway riding.
That bike will melt that tire in 3rd. Been there. I had a virago 750 that would accelerate fast, but top speed was 85. Not much better than a china bike. Allen

Get a 250 rebel. I had one and you can't kill thoughs bikes. The old ones go 85mph but the new ones only do 75mph.
