Hello!
« on: January 14, 2019, 10:40:41 PM »
Very happy to be a new member on this forum! This is my official introduction since  I've already posted many times in the past two days. It's my first time using a forum so I'm learning very slowly how this stuff works. Some nice people have already helped and made useful suggestions.

Anyways I'm 32 from Kentucky and purchased my first vintage bike last year which is a 77 cb750k. I'm currently attempting my first engine rebuild and so far it's going smooth. Definitely planning on buying hondamans book when I can afford it! I don't make alot of money so my bike work has been pretty slow. I have a wife and four kids so not too much free time. I  forgot to mention I have no previous experience working on automobiles so everything I've learned has been thru the internet.

Looking forward to talking to you guys and thanks for having me!

Welcome Steppy!  I'm new here myself and also inexperienced when it comes to working on bikes (and cars).  There are a lot of friendly and helpful members here and it seems like helping other SOHC4 owners is their DNA.

Good luck on your engine rebuild.

If it sounds like I know what I'm talking about, it's because I cut and pasted from someone else.

you can post them here, or if you have a build thread going there as well/preferably.

I suggested starting a thread in the Project Shop area so we can all follow along.
