a little more to be done on monday, then she is good to go. This being my first actual motor cycle (fucked with scooters for a small time), I'm hoping to learn a lot. Here goes nothing.

Fuck yeah.
That mic light is super sweet, probably adds a couple dozen horsepower too I bet.

Crazy that there's a mic light, when I read this thread as "new mic day"

That thing is awesome, it's hella clean! Plus the mic light is badass. You said you're still working on it, did it need much done?

Replace the seat and the microphone, and you should have a good ride.

I'm adding a front brake, needs a new ignition, and there is a slight crack that I need to replace on one of the intake plastic pieces. Should have that all done later today.

I'm with you on the seat, but that microphone ain't going anywhere. I have no idea what aesthetic the guy customizing it before i bought it was going for, Vegas :idk: but I'm going to get rid of the dice caps and poker seat. That shit ain't me.

Once I get it going today, I'll let you all know how amazing it is. I am excite. thanks for the bike love, dudes.

Anyone else ride here?

Got the front brake installed and a new ignition switch. Dumbass who wired it up before basically the push switch always hot so you could still the bike just not shut it off unless you let out the clutch. :picard:

Having trouble idling, so this weekend I get to tear off the carbs and clean them. On top of that, the choke isn't working, so when I get the carbs off I can see why it isn't twisting.

I found the 300+ page shop manual in pdf form for free online, so I should be in good hands. :dance:

I keep updating this while I figure this bike out.
