Can you bump start it?

What happens when you try to start it? You said you have new plugs... have you checked for spark? You know you have fuel? Does the bike have a petcock? Is it in the on position? Does the bike require you to pull in the clutch when you start it? Is there a side stand cutoff switch? I know those are all pretty basic, but those are the only suggestions I can think of off the top of my head. If the bike turns over but doesn't catch it could very well be something entirely different. I'm sure the folks on here have loads of experience getting machines started after years of standing.

LMAO!! Nice headlights.

Hi Stitch. I'm only 5'2 so can't help you on the height issues... but you may want to post an intro in the new member section.

Although I have no input on the loss of compression, I would suggest that you post an intro in the new members section to let the folks here know who you are.

Welcome to the YOC Corsur. Love the FSIEs... and absolutely love that candy red color.

Welcome aboard!

Oooh I bet that's a fun one!! Congrats on the license and purchase. and welcome to the YOC.

Welcome Kev! You've come to the right place. Love the look of the XTs... bet it'll be a lot of fun to ride.

Welcome aboard! Where are you from? (can't tell on my phone sorry) V star makes me think you're in the states.

Awesome! I'll do that when I get home tomorrow! It's nice here in the summer, but the wind is shit most of the time.

Nice! Welcome to the YOC.

Can't see Pocatello on there Mike? I'm on my phone and can't seem to share a Google map. I'm in southeast Idaho near Boise, Twin Falls, Idaho Falls.

Seriously! Doesn't look like it sold so we'll see if he responds to my email. Thanks.

Thanks for the quick response Paul! I'm not sure of the reserve either. I'm hoping it doesn't sell so I can find out how far it is and go take a look. I'd like to know my feet can touch the ground on it before I buy it. I'm just going to wait and see. If it does sell there's a 4 stroke 500 that's been sitting by my house for years. I could see if i can talk the guy's mom out if it. It would need some serious work, but that's half the fun IMO.

Hi all! Hopefully it's OK for me to do this (and do it here). If not please put me in my place. I realize this auction is about to end so there may not be time for a lot of advice. However, it's the exact year RD350 I'm dreaming of and it shows that it's in in my vicinity! How high do you all think it would be worth going (if the bidding gets off)? I know it won't be as fun as building my own, but at least I'll have something that I can ride on the highway without struggling to get up to the 55-65 speed limit... at least until I can get my own bike built. I'm not sure about the wire behind the motor or why he would do that. ?? I also don't like the routing of the front brake line, but if he's really done the work he said (and done it well) it should be in immaculate shape. Just thought I'd see what you all think.

LMAO

LOL! Thanks Steve, but it depends on who you ask. Funny thing though... one of my nicknames is Shush(a) because the nieces and nephews couldn't say my name well.

Hi William. Welcome! Can't tell what you've got on my phone... post up some pics when you get a chance.

Welcome to the YOC! You'll find lots of helpful folks on here. I like the look of the DT 125s... look like fun to ride.

Ya! You're not so far from me. I rarely make it down to Utah, but do have family there (mine and my husband's). Let me know if you ever come through Pocatello and want to get together for a bite or something. (I'm really not a weirdo... although I suppose it depends on who you ask)

Hiya Fletch! Welcome to the YOC.

Ah... guess I just have that effect on people.

Nice looking bike! Good luck on the testing.
