Hi everyone
« on: March 16, 2015, 08:47:19 PM »
Hi, I was registered on here before but due to a problem with my email address I decided to start again.
Just bought a 350f and I also have a 550f1.
The 550 is a rolling restoration, the 350 however will require a complete strip down and rebuild.
Starting the strip down this weekend and writing a list of what's needed.

More as it happens

Welcome. There are a few 350 fours here. Watch out for the 400 owners - they are very pedantic  ???

Welcome (back) good luck with the 550 resto. Got a cb550 myself, but as a pile of bits at the moment for storage reasons, still in better shape than when I bought it when even the engine was in a mouldy box of small, very mangled bits. ( hint I dont think the cb550 gearbox can take been run full of tensioner ) 
Got a 500/4 with rust and a sidecar and loadsa bits. nice and original and been round the clock
