Bonjour folks
« on: June 05, 2007, 04:41:37 AM »
Hello all;

Hailing from the Pinelands in New Jersey here. I've got a '73 cb350f, '77 cb400f, and '78 cb550k. I am only 19 so pretty new to life, but I've been around bikes since before I can remember. I can blame that on my father. Proud to be one of the only people I know (my age) who rides; although it can get pretty wierd when all you have to ride with are old-timers  ;)

All in good fun.

I had a few posts a couple years ago...SteveD still had a centerstand...

Cheers;

Blimey - that was a while back!

It was either Tintin or Terry Quail that fixed the centre stand for me. So long that I've actually forgotten...

Whoo, your post count ROSE!

Bonjour on ya.  Mebbe new to life, but certainly not new to SOHC4's.  Welcome.

Tell me about it. I've got scars from removing the blasted carbs on the 400 from after it had been sitting some odd 15 years...Dang carbs.

I vote Tintin...

Your wish is my command.

Last summer...alas she is for sale. I posted a thread on it since I'm not sure what she could be worth.


Also last summer...no title though. Thats how I got her.


And no pics of the 550. Not yet at least. I was going to dress this one to the cafe, but then I got the 400. I'm thinking about putting her back to stock and then selling...
