New to Honda-SOHC
« on: June 17, 2024, 09:25:31 PM »
Hi, My name is Richard Shearer and I'm very pleased to say that I am now the proud owner of a 1976 CB750 Four. The bike came from Orkney and I'm pleased to say that it will be staying here. All I have to do now is wait for the weather to improve! Glad to be part of this forum as I feel I will need it.

Hello Richard,
Welcome to this great forum, I'm sure you will receive lots of support, advice and info. for obtaining parts and services.  It was good to meet you last Saturday at the 'Annual Gathering' on Broad Street and so pleased that Colin's bike has gone to an enthusiast!  I'll hopefully get out for a visit in the near future and I'm sure Johnny will be along soon too!

Hi Richard welcome to sohc community  - pleased to read you are now the custodian of a Honda CB750 - always nice when it's sourced locally.
Be great to see some photos when you qualify.
