New member from Somerset
« on: January 01, 2024, 04:23:47 PM »
Hi I'm Pete and I am located near Yeovil. I have recently acquired an early CB500 four K0. I have owned one before back in 1975  (K1 UK spec) but that was a long time ago and I need a memory refresh.
I also own a CB50v Dream that I'm reluctantly considering selling due to lack of space. Currently stored in a bedroom !!!

Welcome Pete, I'm currently restoring a 500 K 0.5/1 as I call it that I bought from a member here Bryan (Brynj) - it was a runner that needed some more tlc.

My build is in winter hibernation atm.




Honda CB500 K1 (new pit dug out ready)
Honda CB400 four super sport (first money pit)
