Hey from Austin, Texas
« on: August 24, 2012, 03:44:16 PM »
Hey guys! My name is Gabe and I live in Austin, Texas. I recently acquired two CB750's. One a 71 and the other a 78. I'm building up the 71 into a cafe racer and the other is just a parts bike. You can find my project thread at  http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=111771.msg1254707#msg1254707 or search for:First Motorcycle/ First Motorcycle Project - Cafe Racer.

I've been on here a couple days already and everyone has been pretty awesome.

Thanks!

Dang Texan's showing up left and right this last year.  Welcome aboard.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.
