Hello everyone and thank you for accepting my membership. I signed up today from Italy.
On Wednesday 21 February I purchased a used CB 500 (mod. 1997), 50,000 km, burgundy colour, very beautiful. I am very happy with the purchase. After 11 years without a bike, I start traveling again and with the Honda CB 500, which I rode a few times when my brother had it (my brother had the 1998 CB 500 S).
The bike has a "Mass Tromb Inox" silencer (it is a brand produced in Sicily: https://www.massmoto.it/), which has a particular sound (but I also have the original silencer removed); K&N air filter; Hagon rear shock absorbers; Givi windshield; Givi frame for trio of bags; Continental ContiGo! tires. It does not have the center stand (which was removed by the first owner) but only the sidestand; but I intend to assemble the center stand again.
I hope to have fun with the motorbike and I am sure that I will be happy in this forum, where there are many expert people and I have already found a lot of news.
Thanks to everyone and greetings from Italy.
