IT'S ALIVE!
I shall see if my pics show up - but I'm pretty excited as it runs on 4, isn't leaking gas, sounds good, and makes it down my driveway and back!
never rode one before, but off the bat/1st gear straight only,. It reminds me more of my TZ250's than the RD350LC, which makes me happy.
I legally imported into the US , but am a little nervous about registering in MA.

Re: IT'S ALIVE!
well the pics don't work, but nothing you guys haven't seen before. standard jolly motos , K&N kit from Bill Wilson not installed yet, otherwise a plain jane stocker without the bodywork installed.
Re: IT'S ALIVE!
I look forward to seeing some pics in the future but well done for saving another awesome bike from the scrapy [emoji106].

Re: IT'S ALIVE!
it is a great feeling - I "bought" it based on a vid of a proper running bike, but after an all day drive ended up coming home with a reduced price based on a bike that was on 2 and pissing gas all over.
so nice to find it wasn't a total lump as it pretty much has been the past year, and actually starts readily, moves under it's own power, and does seem to be what I hoped they were - so worth making it what I want it to be.

Sounds like mine when I bought it. First job was to get the frame powdercoated .

Re: IT'S ALIVE!
aahh, I can't upload direct from my phone - and the copy/paste from elsewhere didn't work either.
