New from New Jersey
« on: August 21, 2012, 06:41:30 PM »
Hello all,

I am a new member from New Jersey who only recently picked up his first Honda CB500. Even though I'm new to restoring these old machines, I have a good deal of time spent under the hood of modern cars. Hopefully some of the skills will transfer over to the bike.

The project to put the bike back on the street will be documented in the "Projects" section:
http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=111705.0

As this is all new to me, any input from more experienced CB500 owners is appreciated.

Welcome from NY, looks like you have a lot to work with.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Nice horns!
Must be a city bike. :)
