Hello I'm Lefty

Hi Great forum you have going here.been following just a few months. I had been out of the saddle a while, then came across a custom tW200 and I fell for her hard. So the search was on....Well best deal I could find after months was an 88 for $1400 egad! Good thing I came across one of Spudriders few Posts.....Down the Rabbit Hole again! Not many China Bikes in the North East till "2015 Dual Sport 754 miles no compression $800" Bingo! Got It for $650 First owner over revved her and bent the intake valve. Now just need to source a Hondoid Hawk Valve or equivalent Going to the machine shop Monday,
Best, Lefty
