Hi I'm Jack. I live in Houston and just bought my first CB. It's a 1975 CB550K.

I don't know much about motorcycle repair, but I've been told this is a great place to learn.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

Congrats on the bike and welcome to the forum.  Visit often... read as much as you can... don't be afraid to dig in and wrench on that bike... you'll have a blast!

Hey Big Welcome !
I am also from H-Town, be glad to introduce you around, there are quite a few of us from Texas. I'm out by Katy, and try to ride daily if possible. My pride is my K8 750, but I also ride an 07 VFR 800 ! I will be starting a build with a barn find 550 soon as I can allocate the space and time !!
Feel free to give me a call anytime,
George
