Hello from Charlotte NC
« on: March 25, 2013, 08:24:42 PM »
I am the proud new owner of a 77 CB550k.  This is my first bike and my knowledge is very limited(I didn't even know where or what the carburetors was until I came to this site lol).  I have been reading this board for a few weeks now and I love the wealth of information I have seen.  Once I get enough post ill put up pictures of my ride.  Well it doesn't start up at the moment but hopefully it soon will.

Howdy!  There are a couple of us here in Charlotte/Matthews. 
It is a proven fact that modifying a SOHC Honda in any way will bring on the apocalypse.

That's very good to know.  I'm having some troubles with my electrical system maybe I can buy the beer/food and get some help on the bike lol.

Nikkisixx does not drink, but I do. But he also has a better equipped shop, perhaps because of where he spends his discretionary income.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the sohc4 forum Bacon and congrads on the CB550. I'm in NC also not in the Charlotte area but in Greensboro. I met Nikkisixx and MarkCB750 in Rockingham several years ago at the first relay ride. I'm sure between the three of ya' ll you could get some of your bikes problems ironed out ;)
