Yes its true, I'm getting bored, there's only so much DIY work around the house a bloke can do! Also I have to admit I nicked the idea of this thread off another forum, but what the hell:
I have to say mine was a Honda I had a CB350K4 twin back in the mid 70's. Its one saving grace was the parallel twin engine sounded nice, even with the stock exhausts, but there wasn't much else to write home about as I recall. It was gutless and slow, the handling wasn't great either, but perhaps if I'd treated it to some decent rear shocks it might have been better, but I suppose it was a reliable old steed and it never let me down. I wasn't sad to see the back of it when I saved up enough drinking vouchers from my Apprentice wages to buy a CB400/4.
