NEW-ish member Cincinnati OH / NKY

Hello!

I'm just re-introducing myself. I had a 73 CB550 in high school / college and sold it for a 75 750K at the end of college (in SW PA). Regret that sale as I didn't know how great that bike fit me (I'm 5' 6").

Moved to the Cincinnati / NKY area eight years ago, got married, and now have two kids. Almost sold the 750 but my father-in-law convinced me out of it... Thankfully!

Just finished redoing a house and finally have enough room for the bike. Doing a lot of cleaning and some light mods to make it more sporty and "mine".

This forum is the only reason I still have the bike. It give me the confidence to dive into mods and repairs knowing people are willing to help. I hope I can give back someday!
