Hi Everyone!

My names Isaac and I recently acquired a 1976 CB200 (and by recently I mean a few months, Got quite a few projects baha)
Im based around the Hibiscus Coast and born a car guy! but after years of waiting for an opportunity to mess around with a two-wheeled machine I finally took the plunge. :devil2:

This is my first bike and my first bike forum so get ready for a barrage of (probably misinformed) Stupid questions. :laugh:

Looking forward to being a member of this forum and getting to know you guys better!

Welcome.

A picture of this classic CB200 would be nice. They were a popular machine in 76 when I was high school lad discovering my love for motorbikes

Actually - back in the day I would have been very distainfull of a CB200 as I was more into oily 1950's triumphs and the like... Funny that, now I'd quite like a CB200 to make into a little cafe racer... :lol:

Cheers guys! haha
Ill mainly just be on here to source parts and take in some of the wealth of knowledge as the project is almost at the engine building stage, which chances are its gonna be a nightmare (got the thing in parts and not all of its there) But besides that the frames been painted and im in the midst of wiring the damn thing up :sick: Its a neat little bike and Ive found it pretty easy to work on so far!
I would put a photo up but im a bit of a techno-phobe (and my image shack is expired baha) So ill work on that for you guys!

I spent my teens hooning up the hibiscus coast roads. Luckily enough to get away before Auckland moved in. Get some pics up ya nancy, must be a kid walking past at some stage you can grab off the street, and bully them into putting some pics up for you.:2thumbsup
