« on: November 02, 2009, 10:31:12 AM »
Hey, just joined up, this forum is an unbeleivable resource. I just picked up a 77' CB550 Super Sport.  It's rough but running and mostly complete. Still trying to decidde to go resto, or cafe.  Maybe a hybrid of both?

Strong Island, thats a good one. I actually saw a dude wearing a "Strong Island" hooded sweatshirt once, at a swap meet.  Sleeves were torn off, natch, lol.  We definitely have some wacky people, fer sure.

Anyway, here's a pic of my sled, nailed it for 650 bucks.  Not too bad, considering it runs pretty damn good.  ;D

Billy, you made a nice score for 650. Welcome to the club!

For those of you in the corn belt. Long Island is a cool place. It has everything you need.

I was born and raised on The Island.. a l-o-n-g time ago. Of course that means it is no longer as cool as it once was.  ;)

Nassau County. I never lived on LI but I have family spread all along the Island. Had some good times out there in my Ute.  ;D
