Well, a little info about the bike... I acquired the bike about 5 years ago, after having the front brakes repaired and the carbs cleaned out she has been a good strong runner since. Until last summer when I could no longer get it to start. After toying with it this year I found that my YICS box was leaking internally and replaced my battery and spark plugs and now it is running better then ever, so I decided to repaint it and add some marker lights. Also did some polishing of the engine to remove the yellowed sealant. I also added a switch to turn the cooling fan on at my will to prevent overheating in rush hour traffic. ?:)
