hello from Italy
Hello everyone, i'm Filandro from Italy.
I have a PC 32 Cb 500, one of the latest, this year I had it MOT, new tyres and I'm back on 2 wheels on the road.
Very nice, comfortable and light bike, compared to my old love Ducati SS 600, a real fashion but a proper pain in the back for using it everyday.
Im currently thinking of swapping the stock headlight with the whole fairing/clocks/head light from a CB 500 S, hoping it would be better when riding on the motorway, whats your opinion?
Other question, I must replace the old battered rear shocks, I can choice between HAgon and YSS.

Re: hello from Italy
Hi Filandro. Welcome.
Congrats on the new bike and I hope you will enjoy riding it. It is light and nimble indeed.
Regarding your intended swap to 500s headlight+fairing, I've gotten the impression that it's not as easy as one would think it is. If you don't plan to go very fast always, I'd say you might want to give the standard headlight a try. The round parabola is also a better quality, I've been told...
Shocks can be had from TEC as well.
