Hi all I have joined as I have 2 x CB250n Superdreams, 81 and 83, as projects that I will be working on in the next few months. One I bought as a part restored but has electrical issues and the other an abandoned barn find. I have a RG250 Gamma (85) and ride an R6 - I love bikes! Looking forward to asking your expertise when i get stuck in. Pete

Hi from another new member who joined last month. I also have a 1980 CB250N that I have stripped down ready & ready to start painting the frame soon.

Love the RG, never had one though, only a X7 many moons ago, no handling comparison though Next door had a nice R6 (but it disappeared a couple of years ago, when I was overseas, didn't ask,...)
