Not So New Newbie UK
« on: November 24, 2015, 02:40:04 PM »
Hi just got a few weeks ago a 1976 USA CB750F1 Supersport. Pretty much in original condition it came to UK in 97. It had a oil leak on the neutral switch, oil leak on the tacho drive, leaking front brake master cylinder, and a bad misfire at 60mph+. All leaks now sorted and misfire down to coils and leads I think. I had a CB750f1 in 1977 first time around that I did over100,000mls on so do know them pretty well. Now revisiting my youth. Also in the garage 1973 CD175 K4, 1973 PC50 [still to restore]. 05 Blackbird. This looks like a excellent source of information and entertainment.
Cheers Chris. :)

Welcome!  As a shout out to my US brethren - it would appear the British are coming.

Pictures are welcome.:)

By what I see over here we are buying all your old 70s Japanese bikes as most of ours have rusted away in the rain. ;)
