Bad news..it was someone local so no doubt I will see it often.
Good news..he's a retired motor cop that owns 8 bikes till today..
This is his first wing and he told me the ride to his place was awesome.

Re: well..she's gone.
Thanks guys. I have 3 now I need to finish. I need to paint the frame on the 76, put it back together and find it a home.
Then start working on the 78. It belonged to a long time friend that passed away so she is a keeper.

Re: well..she's gone.
Wow. I guess it happens. I let a '70s Suzuki GS750 go last week. My wife keeps asking about letting another one go. I'm not there yet.

Re: well..she's gone.
Not so bad, I let my last two wheeled bike go about 3 weeks ago. Down to riding two up on the trike now which is all need for the foreseeable future.

Re: well..she's gone.
I feel your pain. Felt bad as my 82 drove out the driveway. Have tried to locate as that buyer sold to another. But so far no joy. Another GL1100 is in my future.
