Well, it isn't a CB750.

It's a Shadow 750, whatever model number that has. I assumed it was a CB because they were only asking $1,200.

So it's a water-cooled, 2 cylinder, with a drive shaft.

The good:
-It's cheap.
-The gas tank/body panels have been repainted this year.
-The seat is new as of this year.
-Two-disc front brakes.
-The carbs have been rebuilt this year.
-The fuel system has been redone, minus the fuel pump (which is stamped Mitsubishi).

The bad:
-It sat in a barn for five years.
-It has some frame rust.
-It tends to cut out after 7 miles. (Current owner thinks the problem may be the fuel pump.)
-One of the fork seals is going.
-It needs new tires.
