New Guy Here from Savannah, GA
« on: December 25, 2012, 09:56:41 AM »
Looking forward to learn about Hondas.  Never owned one before.....a few XS Yamahas but mostly American and Brittish bikes.  Picked up a little 1978 cb550 the other day and am thinking that I need a cafe racer.  Very excited about getting started.

This is what I bought and I am sure I will have a bunch of questions about various things.




I use to own a custom bike shop in Savannah, Georgia before selling it about 5 years ago. (The last pic is of a Police Bike I bought at auction, obviously not a custom build)


Here are a few of the bikes I've built for myself over the years.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!
