Congrats

Love the huge picture which I believe is Mike "the bike" Hailwood on the number 7 Honda at the 1961 Isle of Man races on the side of the building

Actually unless you are older than you look I'm surprised you are a Hailwood fan, as surely he was done racing by the time you were born. Except for 2 Isle of Man appearances in 78 and 79, he was done racing in 1967.

I was born in 1971 and he passed away in 1981.
To me, there is not another reason to buy Japanese bike without Mike who chose Honda.
As you know, Korea had been Japanese colony from 1910 to 1945.

Pauli I had to delete some of your post, we don't do politics here..we do motorcycles. I understand though.

No apologies necessary. All nationalities of men have done horrible things to all other nationalities of men. We try and not dwell on that here, just celebrate that no matter the nationality, we can all come together over motorcycles. We have members from close to 25 countries. That's as amazing thing, all brought together by our love of the CB 1100.
