Glad to be here!
« on: September 19, 2020, 11:43:44 AM »
Hi, Mark here. New to SOHC4, But not new to riding. Really pleased to be the caretaker of this February of 1975 CB750F in Candy Sapphire Blue.
I'm getting around to some minor fixes, riding her, and seeing what to do next.
I'm looking forward to being part of this community, and learning from all of you.
Best regards to you all,
MSH

Very cool story, Jerry!  (Talk about long term ownership!)
Just curious here, what month is your prod date?
Thanks!
