Greeting Tommy, don't foget to log you and your brother's bikes into the bike register.
Nice to have an Asian connection on here, kinda expands the family.

Hey Tommy,
Good to meet you as well. Wow great collection of bikes there! I really like the black CB750 - nicely done!

How are the roads to ride on? I have always wanted to come and do a bike trip in Thailand/Laos/Cambodia and Vietnam.

Thanks
Andy

Hi and welcome Tommy,

I just wanted to say that's a very nice bunch of bikes. That black 750 is very nice and the header on the gold bike is interesting too.

Best of luck sorting out your 550.

Tommy do you have spark at all 4 plugs?
Is petrol getting to all 4 carbs?
Is there enough petrol in the tank?
These are basics you need to check first.

Very cool. I like the old Gold Wing (GL). I respect that you collect these bikes in spite of their rarity too.

Parts must be expensive!

I have bought parts from this Ebay seller. He is in Bangkok and has lots of parts. I save alot of money on the parts, but shipping is expensive. Since he is local for you maybe no shipping is neccesary.  http://stores.ebay.com/VintageAvenueShop
