New member in Dublin Ireland.
« on: January 07, 2009, 01:44:48 PM »
Hello from Dublin.
I have three old sohc hondas, 400, 500 and 750. Planning on turning the 500 into a cafe racer and I'm hoping to get some great advise here. Perhaps eventually I will even get to help out some other heads.
Cheers.

Welcome to the forum! Great group here with what seems like centuries of experience among the membership.

Be sure to post pix when and if you can. Hopefully with some of your beautiful country visible from the background.

A big welcome to you.  You are in one of my two favorite cities.  Galway is the other.

I think I'll go have a pint of Guinness.

Hi Johnny

I'm a bit of a Galway man as well I'm afraid as I worked for Nortel Networks for many years and spent 2 days a fortnight in Galway. Our offices in St Stephen's Green were quite nice to (and a better airport connection)

Pop over to www.sohc.co.uk and chat to the "UK Chapter" - same look and feel (same s/w) but only connected by the fact that we have the same members!  Use the same username so that we recognise you!

Thanks Guys,

I'll keep you updated and show plenty of pics. Thanks for the invite to the UK club Steve, I'll check that out tonight.
Now I'm off to get me a member pic, it seems to be the done thing.

Hello Johnny,
I'm  a compatriot of yours with 3 Honda's here in Nashville, Tennessee, originally from Bray, Co. Wicklow. Y'all come over and we'll ride some very tasty roads here in Tennessee.

Thanks Ray,

Bray is it? no doubt your an old hand at the Wicklow Gap then, if you make it back over here you can borrow one of my bikes and we can give it a rip.
