Newbie, just joined
« on: June 13, 2021, 09:26:10 AM »
Hello everyone.  So after a gap of some 35 years, I converted  but did not own a bike, I have just decided dip my toe back into the wonderful world of motorcycling.  Last weekend I bought a 1978 Honda CB550 K3.  😉 ultimate plan will be to have a 750 & 500 to complete the family!
