Hi from SoFl.
« on: February 26, 2012, 01:24:59 PM »
Hi y'all, I'm a new guy from S. Fla. Twenty years ago I had a CB750 that I loved but along came family and a prolonged break from bikes. Finally decided it's time to get another bike so I found a 1974 CB750K that needed some love (actually two - I picked up a parts bike as well). Still getting it fixed up, I'll post some pics and all when I get a chance... Matt

Thanks for the "welcomes"... Dyrden, I loved reading your build thread! Can't wait to see it done... Maybe I'll catch you out riding one week once I get mine done. Franken, I may be a customer for those side covers... I don't know about the bad memories though - nothing bad ever happens down here!
