My first motorcycle was a Honda CM400T I purchased new in 1982 when I was about to turn 16. That bike gave me freedom and I have nothing but good memories but the fact I am 6 foot 3 and 225 pounds and the 400 looked kinda small under me.
The bikes I really aspired to were the Katana GSX1100S, KZ1000 or the CBX in no particular order. I stopped riding at around 24, got a job, married, kids etc.
Fast forward to 2013, my kids being raised and after binge watching Son's of Anarchy, I bought a 2010 Road Glide which I still own. Did a lot of long trips with the wife. Great bike to travel.
A couple of years ago I bought a second bike a 1979 KZ1000 Ltd basket case. I learned how to fix a clutch, rebuild calipers, change valve seals, adjust shims, change piston rings, etc etc.. It looks and runs great now. Thinking about putting a La Parisienne fairing so it looks like a MFP mad max replica.
Finally last week I bought a running 1982 CBX Prolink. It has all of its parts and was repainted arctic white. The speedo and tach are faulty and missing their needles. It has Gold boomerangs from a Honda CB1100F and a D&G 6 into 1. My first ride I did about 140km when I hit the reserve
. I think its running rich 
So going through all the basis maintenance stuff first. It needs new tyres. I will repaint. I prefer the 1981 Grey but love the CB900F color scheme with the orange stripes (would look way cool with the gold wheels) I sourced a replacement cluster. The D&G look cool but the bike is very sluggish at lower RPM's so will probably go with OEM Sankei or replicas. (the bike came with the original SAnkei but one side is really rusted)
A lot of good info on this site so looking forward to share with you guys.
