Hi all,
The name is Sam, and I'm a proud new father of a 1981 CB650C! Picked it up running but ugly (pitting chrome, fading/chipped paint, surface rust, etc.) for $200 and am looking forward to making her look decent for the commute into Cleveland from home every now and then(60 mile one way trip!!!).
My prior (and first) scoot was a 1978 Yamaha XS750 which gave up the ghost after three interesting seasons of tinkering and learning what it was to wrench on a bike. I'm glad to have found this site - you guys have amassed a wealth of knowledge that hopefully I'll be able to tap
As soon as I get some pictures of the old girl I'll make sure I post them.
Thanks to the founders/moderators and users that make resources like this available!
-Sam.
