I am new around here, but I've been enjoying the threads. I am taking the MSF course this weekend, and I am currently looking for my first bike.

Thanks guy. Shenanigans, you got any advice on finding a bike to buy here in the valley? I've mostly been looking at craigslist and ebay.  :-[

Thanks for the tip, shenanigans. I like the idea of working on the bike, but I'm pretty new to this. I am looking for something that runs out the gate. I'll be sure to post some pics when I get something.

I finally bought a bike. I got a 1975 CB360 T. It is in really nice condition actually. Since it's not a Four, I'll probably just lurk on the forums a bit.

Here are some quick pictures I took.

Congratulations, Chad! She does look like she's in good shape. If you run into any questions, you might want to post to the Other Bikes forum here.
