Yesterday, I have been given a 1974 TX 750 Yamaha by it's original owner. He bought the bike at a left over price in march 75 and used it 'til 1980 when it was stored. The bike has been fitted with a stunning Japauto Bol d'Or fairing that I'll sell to raise some money for restoration of the TX.
Alongside the TX, I have some other bikes from the 50's/60's/70's and 80's:
50's: Ariel 500 single and 650 twin; Panther 600 single.
60's: 1966 Yamaha 250 YDS5E; 1969 Kawasaki 350 A7 (both awaiting restoration)
70's: 3 (three) CB350 Honda (70/71/73); 1978 Honda GL1000 currently undergoing total restoration
80's: 4 VF1000 Honda ('84 VF1000FE interceptor, '85 VF1000F 2 Bol d'Or, '86 VF1000FG, '86 VF1000RG); '85 Honda VF1100S Sabre, 2 Kawasaki GPZ 900 Ninja a red '84 and a blue/silver '85.
My daily ride is the VF1100 Sabre.

Welcome to the forum.
That's an eclectic bunch of bikes ! I like your choice of Honda V4's as I have owned a couple of VFR750's and regret selling the last one. The TX750 is a very interesting (and sometimes challenging) bike but there is a wealth of information here on this forum.
