Hi, all.  I've been lurking this site since last July when I aquired my bike.  Now I've finally gotten around to registering.  The bike is a candy brown 77 550K with about 17,000 miles on it.  Was running when I purchased it (for $425) but not great.  BADLY needed new tires, front brakes (fluid leaking past the pad) and clutch/brake levers. The forks were not true as when the wheel was straight, the handle bars were not.  Got that sorted out as well.  I've really enjoyed this bike so far and even though it's been running pretty good after a few minor adjustments, I'm ready to take it a step further.  I'm really looking forward to picking some brains in the near future.
