Posted November 22, 20168 yr Hello all, my first time in the YOC forum, in fact my first time in any forum. The last time I rode a bike was about 10 years before the internet had been invented and 20 years before in smartphones. My last bike was a very unreliable GS550 custom. Possibly the worst electrics on a Japanese bike. Before that was a GT500 rattling rice burner - I can't believe they are worth so much money now. I also had an XS500 8 valve for a while, a CB550K4 and my favourite a CB350K4. I decided to buy something small and sedate as I wanted to not be too scared after all this time and in my declining years. How was I supposed to know someone had missed a 0 off the cubic capacity and instead of a B100P I got a Thunderace ...! Back in the good old days 4 valves per cylinder were state of the art so with 5 per cylinder and a tonne of other 'improvements' I'll no doubt be asking for help sooner or later including the best brand of washing powder to remove brown stains from my under garments. Bye for now Malky
