I rode my SR500 to the post office last week, it had been sitting for a week or so and crap in the tank had made its way to the carb and the floats were sticking, gas was running everywhere. I did all the necessary dis assembly and cleaning, put it all back together fueled up with fresh and went for a test ride.
2 1/2 – 3 hours and two tanks later I was pulling back in the garage.
It was so nice out, I decided to go exploring. I headed out to the inland foot hills, back to the coast, down the coast, back up PCH and finally home.
I really need to seal that tank.

  2. Well T if it’s any consolation it’s pretty crappy here today. overcast & windy as hell. Chin up my friend.

    Doug: I went on ebay and found a seat foam from a quad, hacked down & then shaped it and it was all pretty inexpensive.
