Good evening all, it seems I joined this forum at some point in the past, though I can’t remember when! I have finally received my 8,000 mile 1977 CB550 K3 back from a 4 and a half year restoration ( don’t ask! I thought I was being generous when I gave him 2 years to do it!) Anyhow, I originally got this bike as a swap for a (knackered) Suzuki GT500 way back in 1979, I rode it home and never really rode it again until I decided to get it restored. My father had ridden it for a while in the eighties but it sat in his garage for decades until his death in 2012, then I had it in my garden for a few years. Not had a chance to ride it since it came back today but I’ve found out it doesn’t seem to want to tick over without choke, the restorer had left by then! Hopefully I’ll get a ride on it in the next couple of days and will report back, just wanted to say hello.
