Glad to find you guys, my SR500 is on the way. Brother picked it up for me in Pa, should be here by the weekend. Will post picks when I learn how! Its Black with a white brothers extractor, and micuni(sp) carb, will holler when it fires. Any hints on startin it? It was running about 2 yrs ago, I plan to run it just about every day sun or sun.

Welcome to the forum...starting is a learned art, but once learned never forgotten. ...onto compression, de-comp in, ease the kickstart over a short way, let it return to the top...release the de-comp, no throttle, kick it firmly all the way through to the bottom...when cold use the enrichment lever...when hot don't... You'll be fine. SR

Thanks, man, got it home tonight, checked the plug, put new gas in and Ka-bam it started. Was hairy riding with no brakes, but was alotta fun, cant wait to get the brakes going---then lights and stuff. Its a real hoot to ride. My wife thinks its too loud, so it must be about just right. Will be looking for a tail light lense-mine was broken on the way home.

My son picked up a tail-light assembly on e-bay, should be here soon. Its starting alot better since a new plug and the air filter service. Sounds wicked cool!
