New member today, hello from NC, USA

Hello all and good morning. My name is Ed, I am in Lenoir, NC USA. I am 63, just retired and am into buying, fixin up and reselling mostly old school Hondas. I have moved away from SOHC CB750's getting too scarce and expensive and am mostly into Honda CB 900 and 1000 Customs now, some Honda V4's. I really like the Honda in-line 4's and V-4's.

Last nite I brought home an 88 CBR1000F Hurricane, which is totally new to me. There in lies the reason for joining this forum. Nice forum and I look forward to interacting with you guys as I am sure I will have some issues I will need help on. I am in immediate need of assistance on cam chain adjustment and I will post that separate hopefully in the appropriate section. Ed
