2018 SSR Buccaneer Loveland Colorado

Hi All,
I just picked up a new-to-me 2018 SSR Buccaneer with about 1,100 miles. It's my first exploration into that China bike life. I'm used to small bikes as I've raced an xr100 and crf150r in the Rocky Mount Mini Moto series. I'm impressed with the Buccaneer and love the tiny, air-cooled v-twin.

I know this bike is sold all over the world under different nameplates, but I'm having trouble finding things like a 420 chain conversion, and how to do any kind of tuning of the EFI system. Building a 17" rear wheel is on my list so I have more tire choices since the 15" is a little odd. Addressing the suspension would also be nice in terms of basic maintenance and potential modification to help the underdamped compression and rebound.

Looking forward to ripping around town and maybe some parking lot drills. Thanks in advance for your help and sharing of knowledge!

Kindest Regards,
Seth
