TOPIC:

Howdy all! After several unsuccessful attempts to post on different topics, I FINALLY read David's email directing me to introduce myself first. Admittedly, I was deadset on purchasing a 1970s Honda CB, but after dealing with multiple clown sellers on Craigslist and Facebook, I spotted an adorable 1974 KZ400 just 30 min. from my home, and ended up coming home with - and loving - it. Owing to my use of the adjective "adorable", you may have guessed (correctly), that I am a female. Additionally, this is my first bike with a manual clutch (I have two Honda CTs, a 110 and a 90). I know embarrassingly little about all things mechanical, but am terribly eager to learn. Therefore, I apologize in advance for all the dumb questions I will be posting in future, and also thank you in advance for your patience and assistance. I look forward to meeting y'all!
Cheers, 
Coran

Welcome to the fun.  There are many members here that are happy to help you.  And no such thing as a dumb question.  (unless it's the 3rd or 4th time you've asked it)  

Welcome from the UK Coran, great to have you onboard. The forum needs more gingers like us 

Welcome from GA. The KZ400s are cool bikes.
