One of them Down under Aussies. Be funn hearing their stories of fighting of Dignos chasing babies. Or have them say  their favorite movie lines in  Crocodile Dundee!!!!!! Of course this all while tearing apart an engine.

Who's that guy who tries really hard with his English?  Is it Strynboen?  That's the guy I want helping me tear an engine apart.  Mostly, I want the sense of urgency and drama that comes with not quite knowing what the other guy is saying.  Then, have a couple beers and BBQ on the sidewalk.

Oddly enough, I find that I can understand him fairly well. I don't know if he's getting better at English, or if I'm getting better at understanding his language. I always enjoy his posts. 8)

I thought the easy answer would've been HONDAMAN! But I'm a newbie that just gets yelled at all the time. It's worth it though. Free education! Not to take this thread too seriously, but I look for replies by Dave500, 754 (crazy ass picture guy!), and MCRider (Bias due to man-crush on beautiful Bike).

For sheer knowledge, it'd have to be HondaMan, TwoTired, or dave500. For entertainment, I don't know anyone's personality well enough to make that choice yet.

Come on guys, are you saying you have not made any local hookups with a fellow SOHC4 member? I have many times, visited their place and had them over to mine.

As for the guy who I would like most to have help me work on any of my bikes, it would be HondaMan. But then again, having any of you over would be a riot too.   ;)

Haven't seen a single sohc4 member here from Hawaii, so no I haven't :P Hell, I've only seen three other sohc4s here in person. One was a 550F, and two were 750s.

Like many of us around Mass and beyond, I've been really lucky to have Mike Rieck help me uncountable times.
Aside from his technical expertise, which is formidable, Mike is a great friend. If it wasn't for this forum, we would not have met, so thanks from me for this forum, although Mike might beg to differ...
