New Assignment...It's Me
« on: May 12, 2006, 12:20:35 PM »
Hi guys!!  My name is Marty/SuperVel and I have been around for a long time but am new to this site.  I purchased my bike new, a 1977 CB750F on 16/06/1977.  This purchase I have never regretted.  Because of work schedules and home construction, I have not ridden it since 1995 and miss that thrill.  I am in the process of rejuvenating this fantastic machine and will succeed with all of your help.  A guy who said he was too old just sold his CB750F on E-bay.  I don't know at what birthday he became too old.  I live in the great State of michigan and enjoy each day the sun shines. :)

Take Care

Why does that sound like some indecent McDonald's ingredient.

1995 eh?  that seems like a LOT of work and house building!  you're only allowed to be in our gang if you go out there right now and sit on your bike and tell her you still love her.

Noel --  You win   A Big Smile and Tip of My Hat   ;)   I have never been to that site, will have to check it out.

ces -- Live west of Jackson, MI.  I know where Wauseon, Ohio is.  Do you carry everything you need on the bike when you go there?  Not many places to eat there.

haffay -- Parts are all over the basement and there is no way to sit down on the frame.
