Hey.  I live in Alpharetta and work in Canton.  I don't have any running bikes yet, but hopefully that won't last forever.  I am trying to get my CB200 running first and out fo the garage so I have more room to work on my '76 CB750.  All of my 750 parts are pretty rough, so anything you local guys have in the way of nice looking extra parts - I probably need.  I especially need an upper triple tree clamp.

Thanks,
Kenolds

I'm in Braselton.  Got a 76 550 I bought new and have brought back to life after about 25 years of cold storage.

Would love to hear from some locals.

Look me up.

I'm in Acworth, Ga ...

I ride The Loop (US129, hwy 180, hwy 60) to Suches, GA just about every week - anyone who wants to join in is welcome. Shoot me a PM. There's also a local bike night here in Cobb County every Tuesdays from 7pm til about 9pm. All genre of bikes show up. Last week they had a mobile dyno - this week a Pro Stunt Rider was there and did a couple demos. Met an owner of a sweet cafe'd CB350 rode in and saw a standard CB450 in the crowd of bikes. http://www.freedompowersports.net/ are the ones who host it - held in the parking lot of Olde Towne - 2500 Cobb Pwy at Kennesaw Due West Rd.

This will be me ...

Thanks.

FYI - there's an open concert/bike night at the Hooters in Kennesaw on the 29th.

I'll probably be there.

ahhh ... cool. Must be then. I ran across him at Atlanta Triumph Ducati's "re-designed-re-opening" a couple years ago and yes, this bike was incredible. It looked like he pulled it from a museum.

Took the CB out yesterday and rode North GA. Met a guy on a CB500 at TWOs and saw a couple CBs riding together on Hwy 41 N between Acworth and Emerson.

The bike night in Kennesaw is hoping on Tuesdays and I ride my CB down to it unless the weather is bad.
