Hi everyone.. I've been checking out this forum pretty much on daily basis ever since I bought my (first) SR500 about a month ago. It's 1978 that I picked up locally here in BC and it's in great shape for it's age and still has the stock look to it. I grew up riding dirt bikes so this is my first road bike and I love it already! I haven't planned on doing anything to dramatic to it other than some minor changes like switching the rear light, moving up the fender slightly under the seat and see if I can find a smaller front fender (any suggestions?). I like the look of some dirt track bikes and I saw a really sweet lookin older XT online (kinda like a 70's Supermotard). Anyways, I'm kinda rambling here. Thanks in advance for all future hints and advice! Here's a pretty poor pic of it but you get the idea. farm4.static.flickr.com/3187/2654111597_ae706bab80.jpg?v=0Cheers, Jesper

Hi Jasper, Welcome to the site and well done on buying the SR. Nice looking machine. There are a few in Canada so you might get together for a ride sometime. SR

Thanks for the warm welcome! So far I've only seen fellow canucks from Ontario which is quite far away unfortunately. It would be cool to hook up with some other SR riders in the area for sure!
