Hi all. Really happy to find such an active forum.
Just picked up a 1980 550. Hooking up a velorex. It is pretty low mileage (under 10K) Swapping out the stater is first priority, then sorting out the electric. My cousin took the thing apart and didn't take any notes. I'm used to Urals and Royal Enfields, so hitting the latter part of the 20th century is something new, except for the '83 Hondapottomus (goldwing) which I loathed due to the size. I mostly cruised the backroads at 50 mph or slower. Took a 3 year hiatus after losing 5 friends over a summer due to bike accidents. I'm partial to sidecars. Once you go hack, you never go back.
cheers!
