Hello from Montreal
« on: August 20, 2011, 06:05:46 PM »
My name is Guy and I live in Montreal, Quebec, Canada

I have bought my Honda CB 400 F 1976 in the month of May of this year after 9 years without a bike. My last motorcycle was a 1982 Yamaha Seca 750 that I sold in 2002!

During this period I exchanged my bike crase for old VW vans (Bay Windows, Westfalias etc.) but you know how it is with bikes you most often come back.

I love Honda CB bikes. My first motorcycle was a 1977 CB 550 K.  The second, a 1979 CB 750 K that I took, in the summer of 1980, for a long road trip with my girlfriend : 8000 miles and 8 weeks across Canada and the US.

The 400 is 'small' but that's OK for the meantime, anyway it's an awsome little classic!

It's un restored (excuse my English, I am a French canadian), has 29 000 miles and is all original except for :
1) mirrors
2) 'chopper like' foot pegs
3) and probably the muffler (not sure)

Nice bike. I'd agree on the muffler. AND, your English is better than my French  ;D
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)
