new here with first bike
« on: March 21, 2012, 05:38:45 AM »
Hey everyone. I'm Dave, I just bought my first bike two days ago. It's a 76cb750a. She looked like she had been neglected for a while when I found her. All I knew is that it had compression, a title, most of the parts, and the guy needed 700 bucks for rent that day lol. After tinkering with it yesterday waiting for my manual to come I got it fired up and it sounded good. Small tick from the top right but way better than I was expecting. I'm sure I'll need your guys brains to pick at some point.

Howdy Dave!  Looks pretty dark in there, you must have pretty good eye sight!   ;D

Congrats on the "A". If you got it running that's a very good sign!
