I warned you it would be slow. The bike is stored in a 7x6 shed and with the snow and wet weather I haven't been able to get her out since then. Full steam ahead now though but remember steam engines are very slow :crazy: oh yeah how come no where on this forum does it tell me how rough you have to ...

Put a new battery in tonight. fired up after 3 turns (I forgot the choke is not on the handlebar).

Will be great to get back on the road last bike was a cbr600 so this will be a complete change for me.
