Hi from Canada! Working on a 78 K8
« on: October 13, 2010, 08:05:42 PM »
Hello all,

Aux from Canada here. After chopping and spending way too much time and money on an 83 XS 650, I went and got myself a new vintage project - An 78 750 K8 with Caveat Emptor syndrome.

I was so stoked to pick up a CB750 that I went ahead and dropped a few (too many) bucks on a an old girl with a few issues.  ::) I'm sure that I'll be able to get her up and running over the winter with some help from this great board.

So hi!

Welcome from Tottenham, ON money should never be an object when looking for a classic bike.  It's your hobby and better than smoking or drinking which you would probably have spent more on than the new toy.
