Hello all!
« on: December 09, 2015, 08:44:06 AM »
Hello! I live in Idaho and have been riding for 43 years. My first motorcycle was a new Yamaha 125 Enduro in 1972, since then quite a few; many that I'd love to have back and a few I'd like to forget. I'm currently the owner of several older motorcycles, a couple of Suzukis and my old CB400F Honda. I've owned the Honda since 1990 or 1991, can't remember for sure. Back then I did a restore on it and replaced a number of parts that were needed with OEM that were readily available. It has sat for approx. 20 years and it is time to refresh it and get it back up and running again. That will be my winter project that I will start right after the first of the year. My plan is to take it down to Caldwell ID in March and show it at The Idaho Vintage Motorcycle Club 40th annual show there. I look forward being a part of this forum.
