Ran for a few seconds and died out, I didn't want to push it too much yet and I if I started it tonight I probably wouldn't go to bed. So, I added some seafoam to the tank and I am filling it up with some fresh gas. I was told it ran a few weeks ago so I am guessing it should kick over better, but I think it may need a little bit of an idle adjustment. What would be a good point to go from here? I would like to do an oil change asap, was thinking new spark plugs too. 1980 CX500 CUSTOM    Report

Then get it running good and focus on the other stuff. 1979 CX500 Supertanker ATGATT makes riding a bike like a sled easier. Quick Reference    Report
