Hello, I guess I got lucky.... bought a CB1 with some internet knowledge of what they are. After riding it for 300 kms I now know what people were talking about. I am really enjoying it!

 Been on dirt my whole life and started Dual Sporting last year to buying my first street bike a week ago. I was lucky to get a CB1 from the original owner that was super clean and well maintained.

I plan to get a windscreen, small signals, fender eliminator, and upright bars.

I would like to thank the members of this forum for all the knowledge that I was able to extract to help me personalize the bike to my liking. Most important all the "Eye Candy", sure is a lot of great photos in the threads.

Cheers from Vancouver Island.......

Go Canucks!

Thanks, thats a lot of kms, its good to know they will go for many miles. I was wondering if the previous owner was regretting selling it to me....There is a lot being said if you miss it after one day. Good luck with your withdrawals.

Cheers
