New kid from Vancouver BC
« on: March 29, 2012, 08:45:17 AM »
Hello folks, I'm Billy. I live in Vancouver BC. I have a wife, a dog, and 2 boys. I am into rock and roll music, pinball, and motorcycles. I especially love the Hondas.

I have a 78 CB750 that I haven't ridden since 04 but just got running again. A 76' CB550 that I was given as a project. Seized motor, now running and almost road ready. I just got a 72 CB750 that came in a 60's style hardtail frame. I have a 74 CB360, 2 71 CB350's and recently acquired a CB125. I have a Montesa king Scorpion project with a seized engine and 2 60's style mini bikes. This summer I am really hoping to thin the heard a little.

I play in a motorcycle themed punk rock band called The Vicious Cycles.

Welcome to the zoo, Billy.

Did you get to thinning the heard much this summer, or did a few more lost Hikes follow you home?

Cheers
