Congrats on the CB 550 M sport-- sounds like a great vehicle you picked up. Enjoy!

Nice 1st V8 to have. I have been lucky have have had 2 other great V8s in the past:
Audi 4.2 V8 (Q7)-- stout engine, very smooth with nice torque. Power throughout the entire rpm range. Sold it at about 35k miles and the engine was still superb. I was lucky not to have an oil thirsty engine some other 4.2 owners had
e92 M3 (s65 motor)-- beautiful engine...high revving V8, have to love that. Throttle response is like none other and at full song, that engine is at home.
