Hi everone from another newbie
« on: August 27, 2007, 06:59:05 AM »
     I appreciate the opportunity to join this forum.  I have had Honda's all my life, starting with an S-90, then a 305 Superhawk, and finally my 1973 CB750.  My 750 is still my baby.  It only has 13k and has been garaged its entire life.  I neglected riding it for a long time because of getting tied up with work and life.  I am trying to get it back on the road presently, working through gummed up carbs, unsynchronized carbs, stuck clutch, and timing issues.  I have already gathered some very useful information from the forum and hope I can return the favor to others.

Thanks again,
Glenn England

I'm very familiar with that one myself. ;)

Welcome. Post some pics when you get a chance.
We'll all be someone else's PO some day.
