Greetings from Holland
« on: May 14, 2010, 05:10:11 AM »
Hi!

I'm TijnOnlijn, from the south of Holland.

I got here while searching for information about maintenance of my bike.

I own a CB550k3 from 1977.

I'm currently working to improve the brakes, and when everything is as i'd like it to be the bike will be stripped and rebuild.

Next to this four we've got two twins: my girlfriend has got a CB400 from 78, and we've got a CM400 from 1982. This is the bike i'll use for the time being when my 550 will be shattered al over the garage.

Hey welcome dude, I guess only the sleepless and us in New Zealand are awake this hour. ;D
My partner and I have some older bikes too.
I've got a 1979 CB650PZ ex Police bike and my partner has an 1982 Suzuki GSX400L.
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!
