Interceptor 500 Low Budget Project

Thanks!

Update:
Synced the carbs using the low budget approach: http://vfrworld.com/forums/1st-2nd-generation-1983-1989/30292-homemade-carb-sync-tool.html

The bike is running really nice. The sound is awesome with that 4 in 1 compared to what I remember the stock pipes sounding like (although it was 20 years ago!)

Only problem is that I am struggling with keeping the heat down for any riding in slow traffic. Other than that it's all good

I ordered some Galfer ss lines for the front brakes and I am really looking forward to the firmness and improved two-finger braking that they should provide.

It was really cool when I got the bike safety checked. There was quite a crowd around it. I talked to one of the guys and he obviously new the VF's. He called it a collectors item, lol.

 

So is this baby still on the road?

 

Not sure. The kid who bought it from me lives across town and i haven't seen it. He was studying bike mechanics, so I think he might have been successful in keeping it going, but who knows.
