Those are the stock handlebars. The two black ***** at the bottom of the bars unscrewed, and you could fold the handlebars all the way down for ease of transport.

A 1981 Honda CX500 Custom...Red with a windshield, sissy-bar and luggage rack (that I put on). Sadly, I don't think I have any pictures of it...

1971 Suzuki GT 350. I rode the hell out of that bike. I had to add outboard motor oil to the oil tank every time I filled up with gas, since it was a 2 stroke. Damn thing sounded like a chainsaw, but I thought I was the ****, make that king **** when I rode it. This isn't my old bike, but it is the same color as mine, a pukey green.

mine was a 2000 Honda Rebel 250 I got last summer. Had 5,000 miles when I got it and I put over 3,000 miles on that little thing in the short time I had it. Kept it as clean as a whistle. Bought it for $1500 and sold it for $1400. Got all that experience and riding for $100. Now you can't beat that! Moved snugly (and comfortably) into a 2008 Dyna Super Glide that I just bought a few weeks ago.
