  • Another site newbie....

    Hello gentlemen and ladies. I am obviously new to the site. I just picked up my first kat. It's a 1990 600. I picked it up for the unbeatable price of $400! The previous owner sold it because it had a carb issue that HE couldn't fix. I guess rather than taking it to a dealer he felt it wiser to sell it. His loss my gain. The bike is in fantastic shape. Hell, it even has brand new tires!

    I will post pics as soon as I get it in to the garage. I'm sure I will need some pointers on repairing and syncing he carbs. I have already downloaded the service manual so any questions I can't answer using it, I will direct your way.

    Thanks,
    Kevin (kmac1369)
