Greatings from West Detroit MI US
« on: November 22, 2011, 04:45:18 PM »
Good evening not really new to it.....Just getting back into it. Rebuilding a 72' CB350F complete with broken triple tree donor parts bike. Don't know what he hit but I bet it hurt!

Myself I'm your basic man's man. I've had/built/broken a few toys. Looking at doing my first reto Cafe' Racer classic Honda.

I have one that runs and one that was dumped sumer of 79' has set ever since probally locked up abotu 81-82 lol

Thanks

Mike

haha don't get me started about Michigan roads!!  I'm just glad they fixed up 275 a bit.  eesh that used to be a nightmare.  can't really talk, though - OH roads are getting to be just as bad :/  *grumblegrumble economy*
