Honda-SOHC

There are bound to be hundreds stashed in corners of breakers yards all over the country (I would have thought, it's not a bit that would have been needed much? But if you can't get one why not fit K n' N's or the like?

Lovely! The early wings are great looking bikes, I hope you have fun on it.

Hi all, I've just joined the forum, and am hoping to benefit from the wealth of advice that's no doubt stored here, hopefully plenty of entertaining anecdotes as well!
I'm a 51 year old bloke who has always loved and ridden bikes; my first was a CG125 when 17 and still at school, then the heady heights of a GSX250 (still at school, bought it fairly new for peanuts 'cos of the new 125 learner rules). Then onto the Jap fours; my favourites were the Hondas; I liked the style and the build quality. These were already oldish kit by the time I was in my mid 20's, but I did ride a lot of the new stuff and knew I would not last long if I bought one of the sweet handling scorchingly fast plastic fantastics; (I got to ride a lot of them as I was a mechanic at KC's motorcycles in East London, only for a year, but great days).
I rode dispatch for years and went through some bikes.
Wrote myself off a bit when I was 27 (cornering too fast) and had to give up riding for a bit, then got myself a 500/4 when I was 30; used it quite a lot for seven years, then moved to Bulgaria and left the bike at a mates house in the UK. Finally got the bike to Bulgaria two years ago, but then I had to come back to the UK for family stuff. The bike is safe and sound in Bulgaria (perhaps the only one there?) and I shall be back and able to use it again in about a year.
Here's a picture, all black and silver it will never be concours, or even close in my hands, but the engine is sweet, it's all fairly straight and turns heads (as long as you don't get too close!). Looking forward to tidying it up a bit and cruising around!
All best to you all.
