On the Road again

Today I decided with no leaking fuel, and everything running minus the front brake, I would start it up and cruise around the block. The bike clunked into first gear, and pulled away.

Things I noticed

• Rear brake way too soft, needs adjusting
• Front springs might need more oil, they are bouncy right now, not looking forward to doing this, the caps were a beach to get back on last time.
• Chain noise was high, used to the quiet shat drive of a BMW
• Valve noise was loud, probably needs valve adjustment
• The bike stalled about 3/4 through the ride, I forgot to turn the petcock back on (user error)

Overall, not a bad first ride, got the bike into third, without a working front brake I did not want to get crazy yet. Need to fix front brake/pads, and adjust rear brake
