New member from Hertford, Herts
« on: January 31, 2014, 04:37:25 PM »
I've just bought myself a Dresda framed CB750 that has been rescued from a garden in Essex. So the obvious thing to do would be to sign up to this forum.........so here I am.

The bike is rough but complete. I believe it to be one of the models destined for the Spanish market.

I'll start a thread elsewhere when I'm able to get some pics.

Hi Eric. Welcome here as well.
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Set/sit. Bought/brought FFS. Bloody Americans.

I don't know as I only picked it up at the weekend and put the bike at the back of my lock up.

I can't get it down to my workshop yet as I'm halfway through building a GPZ1100 Track bike.

I'll have a dig around it later and get some pics. The bike has some unusual bodywork in the form of a one piece tank and seat unit in the style of my old CB900F.

Once I've got the pics up someone may be able to let me know what I've bought.

Welcome Eric, to the world of the SOHC UK. What the hell is someone doing leaving it in the back garden. Some people have no respect.

That's what I thought, but it's safe now and due for renovation some time soon.
