New guy
« on: September 29, 2016, 01:56:09 PM »
Hi guys!  Midlife crisis is in full swing.  I'm 47 and just bought my first street bike, a 1981 CB650C.  Making some fixes and updates from the PKO (previous knucklehead owner), filling in the missing pieces.  You wouldn't believe some of the things I've found wrong.  Anyway, digging in, always looking for good resources. 

Current project is carb cleaning (#3 carb pilot circuit has been blocked for a long time, apparently), building a manometer, and painting the nifty CM400E tank I swapped in.
