Almost Ready to Ride!

April 27, 2009 at 9:37 pm · Filed under Bad Decisions, GS550, Good Decisions, Motorcycles

I dropped it off at Southside Cycles today. I’m getting the carbs synched up and the coil looked at in an effort to get all cylinders running. I’m also having the tail chopped off about here: 

adding pod filters (prior to carb setting), having the front forks looked at and my seat put on. 

After I get it home and all is running well, off comes the gauges as soon as it’s inspected.

Headlight Painting

March 23, 2009 at 11:30 pm · Filed under GS550, Motorcycles

I got bored while waiting for someone with more bike knowledge than myself to help me prioritize the mechanical issues, so I pulled the headlight off and gave it a quick rattle-can paint job. I highly recommend matte flat camo paint.

FUCK. That is a lot of wires.
