Newbie here ........

Post by noodles » Tue Jan 31, 2012 1:15 pm

Just bought a C90 for my campervan .... cant wait to try it 8-)

Used to XJR 1300's and other big bikes for the last 30 yrs or so but have always loved the old Honda.

Bit nervous of the gear change (not picked the bike up yet) and I hope both me and the missus can squeeze on to get down to the shops on camping trips! we might look like a circus act when we both get on it :lol:

Anyway ... I will no doubt be dipping in and out of the forum for advice, laughs etc ;)

Cheers

Noodles

Oh I hope so, that's what most of us look like :)

The Cub is a fine choice, have no fear with the gear change, you'll love it ...... after a while. Just remember to get the bike slowed right down to very slow speeds when changing 3rd->2nd and 2nd->1st.

Welcome to the Club :D
