yes it was. They ran out of t shirts though. So many great bins of old Honda parts to dig through.

Thanks Jason! Your bike was very nice also.

yep, shiz, guilty, I did trailer, first time ever, two reasons, I'm still in a knee brace from the crash on that bike last month, and I wanted to buy alot of parts at the swap meet, which I did, filled my wagon 3 times. I bought from one guy a Super Sport tank, perfect condition, front fender, 4 into 1 header, muffler for the header, all for get this $4.00, all he asked for was $1 each piece.

Yeah I wasn't calling you out or anything, a messed up knee is definitley a good reason not to ride. I was pretty sore myself monday morning after the ride, but it was fun.

For some of you guys who don't know there's a bunch of us sohc4 guys from New England (mainly MA/NH) that get together at least once a month for a beer night. We also have www.nehondaguys.info that we plan some trips and ride and such on. Feel free to check it out. Our beer night this month is tomorrow night in Allston, MA.

cb550fcafe from another board member congratulations! They don't give them Trophies away because they feel sorry for us! Lot's of competition Sunday i seen your bike very nice, I brought my $725 dollar F3 and from what spectators told me i gave a $37.000.00 Sandcast a run for the money......But riding my F 200 miles carving up the back roads?...Priceless :) Last year

That sandcast guy was a knob. All he did was buy it and show it. Frigging thing doesnt even run! lol (The bike was a zero mile, never had gas in it, signed by the designers...etc)
Yep! Don't get me wrong? If the owner stumbles on to this thread it IS a beautiful piece......BUT!! it belongs in a Museum!! Or on a podium in the middle of the event, Respectfully i say this with a lot of truth, I was warned he would be there this year by a friend....But the Old guy that came with me from RI got a trophy so we again did not leave empty handed.......How about his Burnout in the Back when we was departing LOL!!

Bikes are ment to be riden...not to sit and be looked at. That's why I never clean my bike...shows how much I ride and appreciate my bike. :D

Just my 2 cents.
