Dear 'site Administrator...

[ptlcb1]

Mr. Bones,
     I am taking this moment to simple say...THANK YOU!  Thank you for doing such a wonderful job running this website.  Quite often on the CB-1 site that I came from, there were issues that would shut it down.  Then for whatever reason, that site doesnt exist anymore. 
     Thank you for taking the time to develop, this always growing community of CB-1 owners.  I am truly amazed that this little bike, which wasnt in production for very long,  has a love that circles the world!  I know its a biased opinion, but I think its one of the best bikes ever made! 
     I have no idea what it takes to run a website like this, but again, THANK YOU for doing so!  This is a GREAT PLACE!

running a website with this many user sucks, so I would second the motion, GREAT JOB. Without this site I would have a bike half torn apart with no hope of running.

cheers

Agreed! Decent folk and a plethora of knowledge available.

I think I can speak for most of the Kanucks on here when I say...

Way to go Eh!

Thanks guys! Glad to be of service. This site is fairly easy to manage. It's the occasional spammer that gets annoying.

Spammers... That makes me think about the Dave Chappelle episode, when he physically went inside the internet and when the spammers crossed paths with him, he knocked them the %&#$ out!  LOL

When I read your 'About Us' page, im surprised that with your progression of 3 wheelers over the years, that you didnt have the BIG DADDY of them all, the ACT350X!  The CX650 that you have, is that the turbo Honda made?  If I remember right, wasnt there 2 turbo models that Honda made?

I never had a 350x, but I restored an '86 250R last year and that was crazy fast enough for me! I sold that CX650C awhile back, too. Here's the full write up on it, http://bikerflorida.com/forum/index.php/topic,131.0.html. There was a CX500 and CX650 turbo models. The CX650T is the most collectible.

Im jealous!  That '86 ATC250R, I use to dream about!     I keep telling myself...one day, when I have the extra money, I am going to find one of those.   

Your CX650 is nice!  I wont ask the amount of hours of sweat you put into that one.  Instantly, it reminded me of the Honda Magna series!  I really liked those bikes.  I can still remember the advertisment of the V65 Magna!  It was a picture of drag race pilot, Jay Gleason blasting down the quarter mile!  That bike was darn fast when it came out.  I have not seen one of those in a long time, and much longer for the CX.

The Magnas were fast bikes. I almost bought one once.  

Here's some pics of the 250r.  

Before..



The rebuilt engine I spent too much time and money on....

i find this a weird connection as i ride a cb-1 but my dad rides a CX650C which is quite a rare bike i think in the UK. Also great work on the website, has helped me on so many occasions
