Hi im a reasonably new member but haven't properly introduced myself. I have had plenty of bikes of all descriptions but have had the most enjoyment with these two as i have not only bought them but have also fixed them up as they were almost ready for the wreckers for parts. I sold a pretty much brand new Kawasaki 650 to buy my CB550 because i had one about 20 years ago and it just brought back good memmories. If you recognise my paint scheme i have to say i seen it on another bike and loved it so much i just had to do the same. Anyway i like the sohc forum and glad to be part of it. Don.

Welcome home, matey. Those look like nice bikes. I suppose you already know this by now but this is one of the best if not the best forums around. Lots of technical know-how and advice, but good banter as well.

Good looking, rides! We got a lot of you Aussies hanging around stirring the pot! If I can ever get down there, I am glad to know there are a few guys I could call to ride with!
