View Full Version : New Boy
Hello all
I am a newbie to this forum and thought I better say hello and tell you all about myself, so bring up a chair and get comfy this may take a while.
It all started about 34 years ago........ Only kidding.
I am Nigel but am called Ig, I ride a Honda VFR800 for my sins, I live in swindon and use the bike most of the year and use it for comutting and holidays. I used to have a few different bikes going from a Honda 550 Four, a Yammy Div, and a Honda CB500.
Well what else do you want to know??
Hey Hey :)
Welcome to WB - the home of the colourful bikers!

Greetings And Felicitations!! Welcome to the home for the moderately bewildered!!!
have you been reading the dictanery again? :D
Oh my word B_1_RD I never thought anybody knew what a 550/4 was or had even seen one, I turned mine into a chopper in the end, flogged it for a heck more than I spent on it, shame it was a nice bike. Good luck to your dad.
Rex please tell me that this is not really your winter commute?? where do you live Canada?? Nice engine though.

Just took this pic this afternoon, anything like yours?!? :)

Mine was a two tone brown and had wire spoke wheels, others than that yes is the same as.
I owned one of those to, back in 1980, although it was before the Comstar wheels so had spokes. Slightly different shade of Blue. Made a lovely noise if I remember correctly, but not as clean as B_1_rd's. Was a bit of a ratbike since I had no money to spend at the time.
The proper wheels are the spoked ones for that year bike (1978). Dad used to have a new one back in 1977 too. The colour on this isn't the correct one. I have said for him to get the proper colour but he's happy with the one he has. :-?
