Topic: CLOSE DOWN THIS SITE! We Dont Need It Anymore! Worlds Leading Expert Found!

He did am OK job. Some good info.

Uh=Oh!!     LOL..lol

Overall it’s a decent site for a general overview of the CB750. Nobody is perfect, but it looks like the Honda750.com expert missed a few of the 750 production colors:

K1 – Candy blue/green

K2 - Silver metallic custom
       Astro purple metallic

K4 – Armor silver metallic
        Sunrise flake orange
      *Candy gold is not a K4 color, as listed on the Honda750.com site*

K6 – Candy sapphire blue
        Sunrise flake orange

K6 – Candy sapphire blue, Sunrise flake orange are colors that are missed by others as well. Companies selling motorcycle paint as an example..

I know, since thanks to this forum I could determine my bike's true color it had on old photos, Candy sapphire blue. I plan to bless my bike with that color again. Maybe I'll do it in my garage since paint job is rather costly .

But he can't put all the details on his site or be 100% correct, as that would diminish his value to consult....or so he says...

gotta love it. Everything he would charge for we get for free on this site

I thought I was going to find Carpys website.

I was poking around on Google and one of the hits landed me onto this thread. 

Wow.

I'm not sure what all the animosity gained anyone, but I was familiar with the guy's site.  Yes, the format and info accessibility is lacking.  Perhaps he missed an item or two and/or err'ed on a couple of things.  There's a lot of material there and opportunity to miss something.  And unless he's got a photographic memory, then it's a given that he's included data that was sourced elsewhere.   (All authors do that, by the way).

But, he put a tremendous amount of work into compiling and "organizing" the material.  He has posted it free of charge.  And, unless the intended audience was to be limited to a narrow group of easily-offended, pretentious web denizens, then I think he's done the community a service and I, for one, appreciate it.

I was thrilled to find his site, have it bookmarked and use it often.

Am I missing something here? Apart from the hyperbole, and you wouldn't advertise your site saying you knew nothing about what you are espousing, or that you are only the world's no 10 expert, thre's a lot of good information to be had easily to hand. Sure, someone's always going to find an error or omission, but it's a great place to start, and if in doubt, do more research. Hardly a threat to this, or any other forum.

 I've looked up a couple things there. I always confirm what I find where ever I see it.

[MauiK3]

I’ve used it to help me verify some stuff, it’s a little cumbersome to plow through but there actually is some good information there.

It's been around a while. Helpful when researching, Even official honda documents can be wrong.

[seanbarney41]

See, this is the thing...thanks to the intr'net, where any info can be posted, nobody ever really knows the truth anymore...

[andy750]

Very helpful website with an amazing amount of knowledge.

Lighten up Francis. We were having a little fun just joking around about his geocities masterpiece in white. Jeez.

 Yep I think everyone was just having some fun in that post from way back in 2013. Did not see anyone totally shred it to pieces. Some good info in it in a condensed package and a few members added a couple more tidbits.

Agree..... I often refer to it.

[desertrefugee]

Got it.  Frances has lightened up.

Thanks guys.

[Doobie]

I've referred to that site several times. It's handy having all that stuff on one page.

[Nurse Julie]

That site is 100% totally incorrect in every detail if you own UK model CB SOHC/4's 😁😁😁😁 It confuses the hell out of everyone that doesn't own USA spec bikes.
