Hello from California ...
« on: March 25, 2021, 09:41:56 AM »
Sold my motorbike 18 years ago after having my first kid, she is 18 now so I went out and purchased a cb500 73 2 weeks ago.

Lots to learn to keep this vintage going and I am going to need all the help I can get from this forum and it's members. Will be heading straight to the charging section (stator, R/R, battery) section.

Hopefully find some locals in my area (Northern California)

Thank you
