Picked her up yesterday and she started running really rough on the way home. Got her home and started pulling stuff apart and found a few disconnected hoses, and a clogged fuel filter, and a few other issues. Today I replaced/reconnected hoses cleaned all the old gas out of the tank, put on a new fuel filter and now she's running 100% better. But she still has some bugs to work out. But for $890, she's a great bike. I'm pretty proud of myself considering I knew almost nothing about motorcycles just last week!

More pics and updates to come.....:quagmire:

Great news Kurt!!

BTW, Today I got in 50 miles on the old CB. You'll like that machine, I'm sure!

Nice! You already have a cycle endorsement?

Who needs that? I had bikes for years and never had an endorsement.
