New member from Sweden
« on: April 01, 2014, 01:43:50 AM »
Hello!

Don't know if this is the correct section of the forum to introduce myself, but here it goes:
name is Daniel, come from Sweden, 29 years old. I currently own a -80 CB650Z having preciously owned a Kawasaki Estrella BJ-250-96 and a Suzuki GSX-R 750 -88.

Big fan of classic motorcycles! Here are a few pictures of the CB650, the first two show the current state of the bike:





This is from last summer:



I'll probably will be writing now and then in this forum, it seems that there is a wealth of knowledge here.

/Daniel
