I am back

[Andyb]

Howdy folks! I am back in the land of wings. I bought my 83 in 2009 and have done a lot of work on it. It started as an Interstate which was in good shape after I put some effort into it. Then, I got the itch to go naked. So that is what if did . I have had a few different colors on her (all rattle can) over the years and she is currently black with a couple of red stripes though I will probably go all black sometime in the future.

I wondered away for a while when I bought a 2008 VFR as a new leftover in 2011. It is a great bike but I have not bonded with it the way I have with my wing. I love to tinker and there is not as much to tinker with on the VFR. I though about selling the wing a few times but I have never followed through. Just something about a wing.

I have been. The C5 ignition stuff intrigues me. I don't have the cash to do that right now, but I would like to do that sometime. I want to take the engine out sometime to change the stator, clean the starter clutch and oil screen, check the clutch and possibly paint it anyway. Seems like that would be a great time to add the C5.

Single carb might be a good match for your double shotguns exhaust.
