Hello,

Got back on the forums after a year or more away... getting the bike (750K6,) ready for Spring in Vermont.

She's running great and pretty clean, so now I'm looking for more shiny parts & maybe some local SOHC members for talking shop...

Thanks for the welcomes.

I'll post a pic just as soon as I get her back from my mechanic: carb work, tapered roller bearings & repro paint-matched side covers... we had one nice day up here and I rushed into the shop.  Now I just have to wait for the snow to melt again...   :'(

That doesn't happen until May up there, does it? ;-)  Welcome.

Very sharp, very nice, thanks for posting it. It's really set off by the greenery in the background.

Thanks guys!  I got that bike for a steal about five years ago... $800.00 and mostly I just polished her up.   :)
