It's Done!

[FlyingSteve]

Just wanted to let you guys know that my 80 550e is done! Well, almost...

As most of you know, I was having a LOT of issues with this bike. I had to replace so many parts... Well, today, I finally took it out for the first time since installing the dynojet kit and checking the valve adjustment (only 1 valve was out of spec).

I'm running generic eBay cheapo pod filters, Dynojet stage 3 installed according to the instructions with 42.5 pilot jets, 82 GS550ES exhaust... Let me just say that all the time, money and effort was WELL worth it! No idle issues at all, she pulls like a rocket ship doing 0 to death in 4 seconds... Sounds incredibly nice and rides just as well!

I have some cosmetic work to do on Monday and then I'll snap some pics for you guys.

Thanks for the help

Hi,

Nice work! It's great everything is coming together.

I love happy endings. <sniff>

Good for you!

Any photos?

Ya, photos on Monday or Tuesday... Need to finish up some cosmetics first. I ditched those plastic side covers because they won't fit with the pod filters and they look lame anyway lol... So I need to move the battery in to the middle of the frame and then make some sheet metal covers.
