You are in luck (depending on how you look at it)....

We have our own sub-Forum for organizing rides and more importantly SOHC beer nights (once a month):

http://nehondaguys.info/forums/index.php

S-Dog is in RI, I and a few others are in the Boston, MA area and there are a few (Uncrash) for one who is in Portland Maine...and a few guys in Western Mass...PLUS we have the best engine builder in the country here in Boston - Mike Port-your-head Rieck!

Rides in the area include -Laconia, NH (early June), Americade, NY (mid June), Owls Head Maine (late August), Larz Andersen Classic Bike show, Boston MA, and a bunch of other ones I cant think of at the moment....

Let us know when you get here and we`ll throw you a welcome party  ;D

cheers

I am from the Boston area and I couldn't find any Pissheads.

Just got a new phonebook, so I would be glad to look them up for you.

Is it Pisshead or Piss Head?

Hey Sam, Because I know I'm a complete dork, I feel easy about asking you to define "pisshead". While I have a pretty good idea that you're referrring to the cb750's prediliction for shedding oil through the head gasket, I though there might be some alternative Australian connotation that I was not aware of. For lack of a better phrase, thanks for filling me in,

Hey Bob, we have to get you out to one of these New England SOHC drinks evenings and we can show you what Sam means by pissheads!  ;)

Hope to see you this year at some point....what are you riding now?

Andy-

I forgot piss=drink; therefore pisshead is a drinker? Unfortunately, in the USA, the term piss only refers to the action of emptying the beer from your body!

What is the best type of BEER??

Free BEER!

My orange CB750 K3 has come back to me because my friend doesn't want it anymore.

I have a 1982 GL1100 Interstate that is better for 4 day trips; can carry more clothes and is really comfortable.

We will ride this summer.

Hey Sam,
I understand that New England Honda Guys leading linguistic expert and representative, Mike Rieck is planning on meeting with you this summer to discuss colloquial phrasiolgy as it relates to the English language. Sounds like a fasinating time! Hope you get some drag racing in on the side.
All best,
Ben

Hey Ben, Mike has sent me hundreds of PMs and I'm still not sure what language he is posting in ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I've tried several language translation sites on the internet and the only word that they all agree with is "Bastard" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Perhaps when we are tanked up on the Chimay, we'll be able to understand one another :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
I'm looking forward to meeting Mike and perhaps getting to meet some of you over there in the not to distant future.

Welcome to the neighborhood.  Maybe I'll even make a run down for an upcoming beer night.
You can't make too much popcorn, but you can definately eat too much popcorn.
