Hi, from Colin in New Zealand
« on: February 01, 2009, 10:51:34 PM »
HI out there. Been lookin for a good site to help rebuild my CB500 K2 so here I am. This one looks pretty good. I used to race bikes back in the 70's. Had a 1970 Suzuki T500-111 since 1987, Have a 1966 Suzuki T-10, just aquired my brothers CB 500 thats been in the shed untouched for 21 years as he went overseas and not come back. Its been in my shed for six or so years so now he has agreed to sell it to me. Its very original. Interesting is has green base coat under the original metallic brown. Anyway hello to whoever is out there.
