Howdy from Texas.
« on: October 05, 2023, 05:32:37 PM »
Hello All,
New to this site, but a member on the US site and good info on both.

Bikes I have
1958 Vespa (project in a box)
1969 Honda Trail 70
1977 Honda CB750 four K
1978 Honda Express
1980 Honda CM400A
2002 Honda Reflex 250
1982 Suzuki GS450A

750 is the latest and needs some transmission love, but was ridable and a good buy.

Right now, sadly, the Express is faster. 
Once I tear into the 750's clutch and Shift forks, I will give the green machine (express) a run for it's money.
