WOOHOO!!! Finally got the 550 running.
« on: January 07, 2006, 04:29:19 PM »
Ran it around the block a couple of times. I would have done it yesterday, but it was out of gas. Still needs some adjustments --balance the carbs, check the plugs (might be a bit fouled)-- Got an appointment at the DMV to finish the title transfer and registration on Tuesday. Definitely needs new tires.

Thank You, Sirs;

I'm looking forward to FINALLY getting to ride my bike. Changed the oil to Rotella Synthetic today. Plugs look a little fouled due to the carb problems I had, so, new ones tomorrow (Monday). Last couple of things I need are 1) new petcock, 2) new tires (Pirelli Super Venoms, I think). Tuesday, the DMV, Wednesday, THE WORLD!!!
