noooobie
« on: May 17, 2006, 05:57:50 PM »
New to this site, hopefully I dont forget my password or this may be my last post. Bought my first cb about a month ago- 71 cb750. Now I am the proud owner of 5 parts bikes. I am hoping that I can get one or two complete bikes out of the five. So far I have stripped 3 of the five down to basic pieces, and have the one pictured running (when it feels like it). I plan to make a cafe out of the one in the pic. So far I have made clip-ons, and made motor noises. The clip-ons are nice , but the motor noises just made me feel childish. Glad to find the site and look forward to asking many stupid questions in the not too distant future ;)

Welcome 71cb750, it's perhaps as well it isn't running to good, you'd never stop it with that front brake,  ;D ;D ;D

You will find all the help you need on here and a bit of fun thrown in.

Good luck with your restoes.

I don't ......................stir  ::) I flick it everywhere  ;D

You are at the best place you could possibly be to rebuild your mighty steed. Nothing wrong with having MANY parts bikes. I know as I have about 60-70 of various models and makes. And welcome aboard.
