Well here's hoping when i go to start it i can do so without having to screw around with that right away. I would like to get acclimated with the bike first. Changing the oil and giving it the actual inspection it needs should do that and i will feel much better working on it.

I have always turned my own wrenches, cars, quads, dirtbikes, boats whatever so I'm sure many questions will be answered and i will find my comfort.

 

Curious, whats a reasonable asking price for the bike? It needs a back tire and the carbs will need a basic service since it hasnt been ran since last spring / early summer. Its not perfect, has a few minor cracks in fairings from age but otherwise its fine.

Im thinking of listing it for $2800 or so.

 

Pics, please.

My guess is that you won't see more than 1500 for a bike that needs work and has cracked plastics.

 

pics are right in this thread. I have offers on it well over $1500, pretty sure I'm going to get the $2800 or at least $2500.

The position is down. when you turn it counter clock wise until it can't turn anymore.
