My names Kim & I live in carlsbad I've been wanting an SR for a while now and it's been kind of a tough search. I finally found this one in Vegas and picked it up from a good guy a couple of days ago. it's an 81 with 8400mi in great shape with a few mods. with the help of this forum I look forward to getting it dialed in and beating around the neighborhood this summer.  |

Thanks Peter,
Kind of funny the first thing that's going is the red wheels, Gloss Black powder coat tomorrow.
ordered some firestone 4" tires today.
I may sell the seat here in a bit as I want to do this bike fussy kid style.

Welcome to the forum! Very nice looking SR.
Is that a Nirto Heads seat? I may be willing to buy the seat if you decide to part with it.

Well I'm about 98% done, I need to redo the seat as I had it thrown together so I could ride it this past weekend. I need too shape the foam to the contour of the seat pan, shorten clutch and throttle cable. maybe down the road do some motorwork? I just wanted to say thanks for the help from this board it was helpful for sure. She pops wheelies & the ducati brakes make stoppies pretty easy too.    |

Hey Kim,
Can you tell me what brand and model of tire you have on the bike? I want to change mine to street tire and can't find anything I like.
Cheers,
Peter
