hello
« on: December 11, 2007, 11:28:31 PM »
hi all, ive been directed here from the other sohc site just wanted to say hello, i live in west yorks and have had my 400/4 for about a month now. Im very happy with it and makes a nice change from my scooters, i get to places a lot quicker. With the scooters im in a club and we visit many local clubs and have loads of rideouts and rallies throuout the year, is there such things with the sohc? iv'e had contact from steve, he told me he visits my town regulary so if steve or anyone else are in the area and im in ill stick the kettle on. Bye for now regards fat lad ( jonny )
