Newbie Introduction
« on: April 27, 2015, 08:44:07 AM »
Hey - new member here. Just bought a 1972 Honda CB500 Four as my first bike. Interested in learning some motorcycle mechanics and learning how to ride. Taking basic rider course this July, and planning on tuning up the bike till then. Glad to meet everyone.
