Ah! The voice crying in the wilderness!

Welcome to the list, Raymond. After you've been here a while you'll notice that Masis are a constant source of discussion and debate here, often to the point that people joke about it (My God! Another Masi Question!).

But we welcome all view points, and there are lots of knowledgeable folks here who are passionate about old English and French bikes. Ask plenty of questions, there's almost always someone else interested in the answer. And be sure to browse the Archives accessed through the main CR page. A lot of times I'll go there for a simple question, and get lost for hours.
