Hello All.
« on: February 20, 2009, 12:15:06 PM »
Hello to all members,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Vince P from Toronto, Ontario; Canada. I rescued a 1973 CB750 from a friend who was the original owner of the bike. This old girl had been sitting in a garage for just over 10 years. I cleaned it up quickly and started it up last April 2008, riding it through the summer. Slowly restoring and replacing parts to bring her back to pristine condition. What a joy to ride.

Came across this site on my many hunts for information and parts. Hope to read and share some good stories and information.

Regards,
Vince P

Hello Peo,

I stripped the tank in some blistering cold Canadian wind this afternoon to prep it for paint and new emblems, Man the things we do for our rides, fingers are still numb.
