Hello from Illinois!

Hey everyone! I’ve been a long time stalker of this forum ever since I bought my project ‘80 750 ltd, but I never made an account and was always able to solve my problems by reading old threads… I finally ran out of ideas and am currently stumped on some engine issues, so I decided the time has come to become a part of this forum for real and put some posts out there. I look forward to getting to know you all!

Welcome in!

What part of Illinois are you located?  Maybe someone could be nearby and help
out?
