Hondaman CB500/550 book coming out
« on: March 12, 2025, 01:31:38 PM »
Mark Paris decided to write a book on the 500/550 with tips on how to tune them, get them handling better etc. It's taken him a few years but it's finally gone to the printers last week. Expect an announcement about the publishing soon. Don't know the price yet.

Yeah he's been mentioning it in our chats for a couple of years now. Suppose it takes time to write these things. He was looking for pictures of decent bikes to put in the book the other month. Sorted now BTW
