Hey from Queens!
« on: August 02, 2018, 02:25:05 PM »
Hey everyone,

My name is Joe and live in Astoria, NY. I got lucky (I think) and got my ‘71 frame ‘73 CB750 from a buddy who was basically willing to give it away. It’s been sitting with no fluids for around a decade. Just got it to start and it seems like there’s a lot of potential to get it on the road this season without taking apart the engine. This forum has been a huge help so far. Thanks everyone.

Welcome from NE MN,

If the bike is not smoking and not making a lot of racket, you don't need to tear it down like an early 70's Harley.

Welcome !

I also got lucky in Queens once, her name was Abbie.

But that's another story.
