Salvage

Relisting this auction. The first two buyers have disappeared. No payments. Deadbeats. Both were out of country buyers. I'm going to make myself a rule here for auction #3. I will not accept a bid from an out of country buyer unless you first contact me. I will expect you to be able to describe how you will manage transportation and that you have made appropriate plans for receiving the bike. If you can not do those things, and you still bid, I will cancel your bid. Sorry, but I've been twice burned. Selling my CB750F. 4845 original miles. Very good condition. My plan was to restore the bike. I did some work, then disassembled the carbs, intending to polish and chrome plate. I completed the disassembly and ran out of enthusiasm. Except for the disassembled carbs, the bike is 100% complete. Minor cosmetic blemishes consistent with a bike of this age. Prior to carb disassembly, the bike ran very well. I have no title for the bike, despite the statement of Salvage Title. E-Bay apparently has no provision on the drop down for No Title. I bought it more than 10 years ago and simply forgot to register it. (I had a lot of bikes at the time and this one got ignored.) It was purchased so long ago that I have lost track of the purchase agreement and no longer remember who or where the seller is. In Minnesota, where the bike is located, a new title can be issued by completing appropriate paperwork and posting a bond for three years which is equal to the value of the bike. I imagine similar procedures exist in other states. I am selling the bike with no reserve. By the time the bike is transported and the carburetors are rebuilt, plus the potential cost of bonding a new title are incurred, you'll have paid what this bike is worth on the used market. I've had my fun with it and I want to make space for something else. Whoever becomes the new owner will have an excellent running vintage rider, or the basis for a very fine restoration. Buyer is responsible for the costs of shipping. I will gladly assist with logistics on my end. For a local buyer, I have a trailer and will deliver the bike within 100 miles.
