NEWBIE FROM UP NORTH
« on: February 04, 2009, 09:17:54 AM »
JUST SAYING HI,
Bought a 75 cb550f and 74 cb550k both in great condition and running from a neighbour. Both have 10 years in the barn. They are both in the basement and the 550f is down to the frame. Will be sandblasted as soon as I get a couple more bucks. I,m too old to ride a cafe, so i am doing her up stock. Has 17000 on the odometer. i have been surfing your forums for a year before i bought the bikes, plan to do all the right things. Bought a new mac 4 into 1 from a kid in town here,$100 with the muffler, good score.
Have 40 hrs. into cleaning and polishing, parts are sorted between polish, paint, repair and replace.This is my first bike build, however I am a tech guy for a living and am feeling comfortable with my understanding.
looking foreward to twisting the wrist
Great forum.

Frame should be painted this coming weekend and ready to start putting her back together.
