New bike - have to change my name...
« on: July 05, 2018, 10:44:11 AM »
This lovely CB500K0 arrived yesterday in sunny Wokingham.

[ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Since this photo was taken, it has been fitted with paintwork from Menno so even more lovely.

Many thanks to James, David Silver (?) and Menno

Bike needs a name too - "Goldie" sold to another forum member to fund this.

Beautiful, I'm envious. I thought when Goldie went that you were deserting the 500s. Early 500s are the best looking of all the 500/550 range IMHO.
How about a pic from sunny Wokingham?

The yard outside my garage is ugly. I’ll have to get the V5 and a plate so that I can ride her out to somewhere more scenic.

Shoreham, close to Brooklands pleasure Park and the Go-kart track where I used to spend every day of our two week summer holiday when I was a kid!
