Just Curious...
« on: August 25, 2008, 12:02:24 PM »
I was wondering how long this board has been around?  Back in 1998 or so I bought back my 1977 CB750K that I had sold a friend.  I then proceeded to rebuild the carbs which was a first for me.  I worked with a board, possibly this one, but can not say for sure since it was almost 10 years ago.  Once the carbs were done and synced, man that bike ran better than when I bought it back in '77.  Any one know when this one started?

Hey Johnie,

You will find the complete history here:

I joined the SOHC mail list (which is STILL active for the diehards  ;)) in 1999 and best thing you could have done if owning a SOHC bike.

BIG thanks to Glenn for keeping it all running smoothly!

cheers
Andy
