So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

If you buy something.........pay for it !
If you sell something .......ship it !
If you say you are going to do something......do it !
If you have a question about something......ask it !
When the seller answers ........let him know whether you still want it or not !
If you receive something .....let the seller know you got it !
If you get something and are happy/un happy with it .....let the giver/seller know !
If you have any kind of issue,shipping/receiving/quality/price/shipping charges etc !
Communicate

thanks for the welcome. I look forward to sharing more about these great bikes.



bad pic, but i hope to clean it up some more and get some decent ones up.

my other bike is a Suzuki SV650. You can see its can in the pic. The 550 is my first Honda if you dont count my lawnmower.

Hello and welcome from Charlotte, NC.  Does anyone know of any Vintage Moto Clubs in the Carolinas?  If no, do you want to start one?
