I've been lurking on the forum for a couple of months just soaking up the experience and knowledge available here. I found an orphan '73 CB500 that looked like a good bike to begin with. It is mostly unmolested and needing a lot of cosmetic rejuvenation.
It's to far gone to restore and my plan is a low budget rider. The Big Brown Truck is beginning to stop on a regular basis and I've laid in a supply of scotch brite pads and buffing compound. Thanks for all the tips so far. I hope to meet with some of the other members North of the San Francisco Bay Area.
