Noob From Indy

Hey guys. Got my 1st bike over the summer. I bought a '79 650SR. Bike is 95% original. This is my third bike forum and am glad to see the wealth of information on this site vs. the other ones. I think everybody in an advance for assistance as I do some work on my bike this winter.

welcome i have been a big fan of the sr650 i'd like to get one myself one day there is definitly a ton of knowledgeable people on here 650's or otherwise you came to the right spot.

Welcome BigNasty277! The 650 is a great bike:) What do you plan on doing to the bike?

The person I bought the bike from lowered it. I am going to take the struts off the back and put shocks on it. I am going to lower the front forks the right way so I can take the clipons off and put a stock looking handle bar on it. The bike is to nice to hack up so its going to remain close to stock and use it as a commuter bike for the summers. I am going to replace the valve gasket, replace the tires and get a Z1R quarter fairing from air tech. They have one they made that has been modified to fit a smaller wind screen.

Big Nasty, Nice find. definitely bring her back the way she was on the showroom floor, beautiful bike original.And welcome to KZR nation,best of the best. the invasion continues. regards Duke
