Howdy y'all!

I began my motorcycle career 10 years ago with a '74 CB200t. After a long hiatus (and a 6 month ride to Latin America on a KLR), I recently acquired a '71 CB450 in good shape and a '71 CL175 in rough shape ... just in time for the rain!! :-D
I plan to spend a lot of time on this forum as I get both bikes roadworthy.

A shoutout and thank you to #longdistancerider who got coffee with me yesterday and encouraged me to join this forum. He is a fount of knowledge regarding motos and life in general.

Thank you for having me!

Welcome aboard Ethan, it was a pleasure to talk to you yesterday.
Don, do you know the NGK plug end cap part number? Ethan needs a pair.

Hi Ethan,

Fellow Portland restorer. I'm working on a '70 CB175 right now. Frame off - full paint project. It's the little sister to the '70 CB350 I restored last year. Happy to compare notes with you. I'm in NE Portland.

Bummer about the rain today.

Cheers,

Mitch

Thanks Don. The spark boots are already on their way.

Mitch, would love to compare notes. Looks like you're far on your way in the restoration! I'm in NE too.
