newb out of toronto
« on: February 01, 2009, 06:59:13 AM »
hey there im new to the this site, and its been very helpful so far.I remember the first time i fell in love with an old bike, it was in the friends garage. A buddy of his was storing a 69 honda cb350. i was just awe struck and offered to buy it but no deal. so i eventually bought a kz400 as a beginners bike and moved on up from there. iv owned six bikes and now have the one im going to keep and make it into my own, 1977 Honda cb 550k. i haven't taking any pic of it yet but im starting to tear in down.once i figure out how to post pics ill start doing a collage of the stages.

cheers.

Welcome from north of Toronto.  (You'll have to ride out of the city up this way to find some nice roads.)

If you buy something.........pay for it !
If you sell something .......ship it !
If you say you are going to do something......do it !
If you have a question about something......ask it !
When the seller answers ........let him know whether you still want it or not !
If you receive something .....let the seller know you got it !
If you get something and are happy/un happy with it .....let the giver/seller know !
If you have any kind of issue,shipping/receiving/quality/price/shipping charges etc !
Communicate

I'll throw in a welcome from Whitby!

Are you right in the downtown core or are you a little more in the burbs? Reason I ask is sometimes it can be a pain to find a place to wrench downtown as parking and cover are hard to find!
