Re: good to know for everyone..
It is amazing that just last night I watched that same video. I had been working on my VT500C and had just replaced the CDI unit and was looking to see just what made them tick.
Got it running today, and was really surprised at the differience in the foot peg location vs the wing.
Tomorrow I will take a look the 550-4. Put some Sea foam in her tonight. Got spark all the way through as it should have.
Will see what that does to the carbs after a VA Dr's appointment in Gainesville tomorrow. Another excuse to ride the bike tomorrow. That makes it a lot easier to pass the slow traffic on the way too. 




Ride safe, and smart. Asphalt is like #1 grit sandpaper. Dave

Re: good to know for everyone..
Have you guys seen the bearded dude that cusses like a drunken sailor, He says he's a redneck,,, I watched him change clutch plates out while smoking a cig., I laughed because once he got everything in he had to take it all out because something wasn't set right... good fella though,, he doesn't need to cuss so much but it's his video...Looks like he works on bikes for a living... He's funny...

Is that the guy that starts his vids with something like "Greetings, ***kers and ****heads"? If so, he's pretty funny to watch.
