OrlinEngh Posted March 22, 2015 #1 Posted March 22, 2015 I got the 1st Gen back together after tearing it down to fix all of the loose and broken parts grease and lube. Had to replace the fairing it was just to far gone to fix, so its got a black fairing and the rest is burgandy and a couple of other colors. But its all tight and road worthy. Cranked it up synced the carbs and took a ride went down the road for about 10 miles and pulled over and checked it over and felt good enough to open it up. Have a spot where I like to try them out nice turn around and a good flat straight away not many of those around here. Took off and run it up threw a few gears looked down and seen a 110 and backed off just have to love these old bikes. Can hardly wait for a good day to just get out for a nice ride and put some miles on it. Orlin
Flyinfool Posted March 22, 2015 #2 Posted March 22, 2015 Cool beans. Now that you have a fast bike again maybe you can sneak off next weekend for Milwaukee M&E.
OrlinEngh Posted March 22, 2015 Author #3 Posted March 22, 2015 Cool beans. Now that you have a fast bike again maybe you can sneak off next weekend for Milwaukee M&E. Still a no go for me next weekend, forecast next weekend for here says rain and snow, Will be glad to see April 1st and no more on call, Got called in yesterday to move a big rock off of the road that came down off of the hill. Not sure what this helper I have is good for he is hard to get ahold of and I cant get him in the new truck to run it says there is to much stuff on it to figure out.
Chaharly Posted March 23, 2015 #4 Posted March 23, 2015 Glad you're happy with it! I got mine going too recently and cant be happier. I wish Yamaha would've done some advertising on these bikes so maybe they wouldve had the incentive to make a 1500 goldwing killer!
