In the interest of doing more to promote clubs, tech sites, photo sites, and general websites that focus on the SOHC/4 bikes, I'm collecting links to the best SOHC/4 resources out there.

I'll start it off with a few:

Ed Swearingen's tech site: http://www.salocal.com/sohc/tech/tech.htm
(Great illustrated how-to's - Ed, you still here?)

The CB Four Club, Germany:  http://cbfourclub.de
(they send me their magazine pretty regularly - it is a great publication, but in German)

The CB Four Club, Netherlands: http://cbfourclub.nl
(Rene van Maanen's efforts to get a SOHC club going in the Netherlands)

The Motorcycle Project: http://www.motorcycleproject.com
(Mike Nixon's great tech site focused on the SOHC4's and the CBX)

Old Man Honda: http://oldmanhonda.com

Satanic Mechanic: http://www.satanicmechanic.de
(Axl Griessman's site - Axl's a long-time SOHC/4 member)

Steve put together a FAQ item that covers online parts & supply resources:

http://www.sohc4.us/forums/index.php?topic=743.0

This list shouldn't replicate information posted there.

I've been living on crotchrocket's microfiche files lately.  I'm trying to compare parts from different years and/or models to see if they are interchangeable.  The schematics are easy to load & fast.  I open up two windows, one for each model and do a side-by-side, as the part #'s rarely match right-on.

Adam - it looks a good site.  However, if you click on one of the links, it takes you to eBay !!

Those reasonable prices seem to be the start or current bids rather than the selling price.

Shame.

                                      Both of you guys have a right to be biased, you're both making a difference.
               You 2 are doing what a lot of us would like to do but, myself, I am enjoying watching you all
               doing what you really enjoy. Keep up the good work and keep on truckin'.
