Another Canuck
« on: July 23, 2007, 06:09:19 AM »
Hi Gang,
I just picked up a '76 CB550F after 25 years without a bike. She needs a little TLC and wont be on the road for a few weeks, but I CAN'T WAIT. I'm in Belleville, Ontario...a little way outside Toronto.

Thanks for the website, what a HUGE help !

Welcome from Whitby....I also have a cottage out your way (well it's my parents cottage) in Picton. You have some awesome roads out that way...an amazing ride is to go across the glenora ferry and ride 33 out to Kingston or Gananoque. The 750 isn't roadworthy but I do take my CBR out there as often as I can...

That was pretty much my story last year ('77 750k). You'll be one happy camper when you get her on the road. :-)

Hell it sounds like we have enough guys in the durham area to form our own SOHC club!!! Iam in the process of moving from the Shwa to Whitby...one of the key reasons is I now have a double garage to work in!!! I will finally have the space I need to bring the old beast back to life. It is still a ways away from neing ready but until then I have the CBR!
