Hi all,

 Have been mooching on here for a while so thought I would introduce myself.  I have a 1976 750 in the shed. Sometime in the past the frame has been chopped about, some of the work quite scary to say the least and it hasn't run in many years. The plan is to make sure the frame is safe and then take it from there. Obviously the engine will be opened up and checked over but amazingly it still turns over on the kickstart after many years of it being sat outside under a tarp. I'm sure I will be asking many questions and seeking advice in the months to come.

 I also have a cb 400N that again is in bits.. (bit of a theme). That again isn't standard at all and will hopefully be finished in the next month or 2.

 So a big hello from me
