Another new Chap
« on: August 10, 2015, 12:11:09 PM »
Hi Guys & Girls my name is Chris, I have a CB750K4 and a CBR1000rr5 which has a fault ( to many cams ). I worked for Honda for 18 years from 1974 as a technician and currently work for Harley Davidson, I have strange feelings for old Honda's that wont go away so there we are. The forum looks very interesting from what I have seen so I am looking forward to participating. Chris.

Welcome to the world of precision engineering and reliable bikes! Working for Hardly Dangerous? That was a bit of a shock after Honda I'll bet, a background in John Deere or Massey Ferguson would be more useful in your current job

welcome to the forum Chris.  Any chance of some photos?  What condition are your bikes (we get all sorts on here), do you ride often?

Nice looking bike I think you need a certain amount of posts before being able to post pics.
Or you could use photobucket   ;) I think?
