Introduction
« on: May 27, 2023, 10:58:22 AM »
Hi, just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. My name is Brian and I live in the St Louis Missouri area.  I just bought a 1980 Honda CB650.  It doesn't run, so I'll be reading quite a bit on what the forum has to offer. Already found a lot of great information. I can see this will be a frequent resource for me to reference. Looking forward to interacting with everyone as this project gets started.
