New CB750 enthusiast ... Ontario, Canada
« on: December 03, 2013, 05:43:04 PM »
This is my 1974 big four. She was lovingly restored by the former owner and doesn't really need much in the way of tinkering. All stock except for HM300's and superbike bars.  This is my first vintage ride and I'm learning the ropes of keeping her on the road. Just wanted to say excellent forum!

HM300 exhaust is NOS from Honda dealer. Sound amazing. I gather these are hard to come by these days.

Nice ride!  Welcome to the forum and the SOHC4 community.

Hello HR I'm located in Hamilton, otherwise known as the Hammer. Lived in Toronto for 15 years prior to the pre-Ford Nation era.  And I thought Mayor Mel Lastman was a whackjob when I lived there .. where do they find these guys?
