Title: Newbie in Newcastle Upon Tyne
Post by: Davey J on October 27, 2009, 07:48:20 PM

Hello there,

Recently acquired a basket case CB500 four [one [nearly] complete bike & and one frame / engine]

I've never had a go at resurrecting an almost lost cause before having spent most of the past twenty years on much more modern stuff - currently have a 2001 Blackbird in the garage too. Looking forward to long winter nights tinkering and looking for missing parts.

Will post photos when I have got the bike looking a bit more presentable .......

Cheers

Davey J.

Lots of bits at Dave Silver, some are unobtainium and freinds/holidays in the USA are beneficial

Hi

"Lots of bits at Dave Silver"

Thanks for that. I've used them in the past for new parts - do they also sell used stuff?

Cheers

No. They sell "Original" Honda parts and "Pattern" parts.
