Hi All! Chicago headed to Asheville, NC
« on: July 21, 2018, 01:32:12 AM »
Just joined the forum as I am a proud new owner of a ‘77 CB750K. Since my days riding small Honda’s in the 80s as a youngster I’ve wanted one of these. ‘77 is the year I was born and I’m proud to have a bike as old as I am! Most of my experience in my adult years has been with Triumphs, and my daily drive is a 2015 Triumph Speedmaster that i have highly customized to my liking. I have big plans for the ‘77 CB750 and I know this site will be a tremendous help in my quest to make this the ideal cafe/brat I’ve wanted for years. I live in Chicago now but I’m moving to Asheville, NC in August so I look forward to learning more here and taking on this build as my first “winter” project in a warmer climate. Let me know if you are in the area, I would love to meet up!

Scotty

You'll really enjoy the roads in the Asheville area on your bikes. Far nicer riding than IL and especially, Chicago  ;D

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

To your East in Raleigh area but love the rides up there, especially the Blue Ridge.  Welcome to the world of "Southern by Choice."
