Nice turnout this morning.








   You did a pretty good job!
  You need to give us a step by step on how to get pictures onto this forum!!



Taking advice from me on computer stuff is probably not a great idea.

Hey.  I’m just over a week since my surgery.  All went well and I’m recovering.  But I’m hoping I’ll need some help.

I’m hoping to look at a CB750 to get. I won’t physically be able to do much for a few months at least.  If I manage to get the bike, I’ll need help to pick it up and maybe some place to stash it until I’m able work on it.  I’m hoping to see it soon.  I just hope I’m not too late.

If anyone might be able to help, please let me know.  I’ll keep you posted on whether I even get the chance to see it.

Dang, missed another one.  A really nice complete original 4 piper.  Not running, but I’m used to that.  Anyway, I was supposed to go see it this afternoon but it got sold before to someone else.

I had similar luck over the years.  Best to NEVER get your hopes up, and investigate alternatives.  That's why I've had 15 Hondas of various types, and 16 Suzukis, with another one, a potential project, sitting in my Workshop.

BTW.......DICKEN....if you're on line I'd like to talk to you about your cache of older Suzuki GS-400 bits and pieces.   Phone number?  Private Email address? etc.

A Hondamatic 400 twin turned up after our coffee group dissipated, this is quite a rare beast I think.
They made a 400 and 750 version back in the 70s
The owner had designed and 3D printed a manifold for it which allowed him to use just a single carb.
I knew I should have ridden my 76 Guzzi Convert instead of the modern V7III

  I know a guy who has a brand new zero miles 750 Hondamatic. Of course after 40+ yrs, the machine should be completely rebuild and new seals and gaskets installed.
