like the title says, I got this old bike for a song, and couldn't pass it up. Turns out it's also unfathomably cheap to get parts for -- coming from the $10k+ I've spent on my '78 CB750K, it's a tremendous relief!

Problem is, maybe I'm not looking hard enough, but despite 50 million of these and family being on the roads of the world, I can't find a forum like this one. I've found some mentions of parts resources, like drATV, which is really enough if I have to get away without a community, but there *must* be something out there. Anyone have any ideas?

Yahoo Groups C70 Passport group, good group but traffic is tiny in comparison to something like ths forum.
The CT group and the re are a couple small honda groups there that are useful.
Do not bother with some groups there that do not have restrictive membership as they are useless spam filling the message boxes with no list moderator or owner with enough time to keep the rat bast--- out.

It just blows my mind that there are literally 60 million of these things built and no hugely active community. I guess it's mostly poorer countries where they flourished though...they're quite rare here in Canada it seems.
