g'day everyone!

well, how is it going?
sigment here, reporting from houston, texas U.S.

I just picked up a complete 79 sr500 (running) a few weeks ago for 400usd!!!

The only issue: it smoked bad! But it still had great compression, so just to be safe (instead of just replacing the oil ring on the piston) i ordered a new piston and got the head bored once over. Start fresh.

well, i have been fascinated on the brat style sr400s, not the chopper type but the other street looking ones, kind of flattrack style but not really lol.

I am excited now that i finally have one. I have a feeling it will make a nice addition to my 79 kawa kz400 and 81 kawa kz750.

:Warning: Most of my questions will probably be about parts (where to get and who speaks japanese) because, so far, i havent found many places in the u.s. to pick up the cool stuff ie. nitrohead seats or custom tanks etc.

thanks for having me and hopefully i will be able to offer some good info on general bike questions as i have built from the frame up 2 and restored many more...

thanks all

will ;D
