Hi there...it's been a while. Cheers from Belgium.
« on: May 19, 2019, 05:42:36 am »
Hello, I was a member of this club years ago, back in the 90ies, when it was still a mailing list. Wasn't that fun ;-) I put my cb750k7 in the garage around 2001 or something, and it only came out a few weeks ago...to give it away to my older brother, who's retired and has enough time to get it back on the road again. And that way the old shoc4 stays in the family, and once he's done I guess I'll also get to ride it every once in a while, for old times sake.  So I'm here mainly to help him out, so I'll be asking a lot of questions. But also of course because I will always have a weak spot for the sohc4's. And who knows, I might once get one again.
Still in my garage is an ´83 xl250R and an ´86 xl125RF and in a few weeks a brand new Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor. Yep sorry guys, whith a full time job, I wanted something classic-looking ready to ride whenever I have some time.   
Well cheers to you all! I saw some names on this list that sounded familiar from way back, and wonder if anyone still remembers me.

Welcome back Brian!

I joined the SOHC dorje mailing list back in 1999 and remember Johnny from Belgium and Renee from Netherlands but not sure I remember you. Anyway glad to hear you are resurrecting the 750 and wish you all the best with it.

cheers
Andy
