Not even sure where to start here. As far as aftermarket electrical there wasn't a ton done. Both original gauges were removed and we added 1 guage. We also added a USB charger which has been disconnected since I got the bike as we had battery issues and we thought this may have been draining...

Ya thanks it's just so frustrating as all I want to do is ride.

Hi everyone, I first introduced myself in a different section of this forum but the thread has sort of turned into technical questions so I thought it may make more sense to post my issues in this section. The thread can be seen here -...

Ok next major issue. Was driving the bike today and it just died on me. Opened the left side cover and it looks like the 15amp fuse blew. Thats's the very right fuse of the 3 fuses that were there. Walked to a hardware store and picked up a few more fuses just in case it died again. Placed one...

Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification.

Thanks, you may hear from me! So riding yesterday went much better. I started the bike up with the choke fully open then once the bike was warmed up I closed it and went out. Not one stall which was great. I also played with the idle screw which may have helped although I think I may have...

Thanks for all the info guys. Today I'll try riding with the choke in the opposite direction of what I had and see if I have trouble with it stalling in the idle position. Thanks again.

Yes this is exactly what mine looks like. So when the bike stalled I had it to the open position (opposite of your pic) when I started the bike up and when I was driving it. Do you think this is why it stalled?

Open choke meaning it's the opposite of what it is when the bike is off. I turn it so it's fully open which I assume means fully pulled?

Thanks for the welcome everyone. Quick question. On the day I dropped the bike I noticed all 3 stalls were when I was trying to slow down and coming to a stop. It was like the bike would putter then eventually just shut-off. Any advice as to why this may be happening? The guy who built the...

Here's a pic of the bike as well -

Thanks for the welcome guys. So second day of riding and unfortunately I got stuck in rush-hour traffic on queen street. Bike stalls and over she goes. First drop and I've only had the bike 2 days. No damage to the bike but I pulled my left hamstring trying to keep the thing from falling...

So I finally got my bike dropped off yesterday. I had a guy in Chatham Ontario (smyth innovations) take a 77 cb550f and transform it into a more modern brat style bike. Took 2 months and although the process was fun I was dyeing to start riding. Man am I happy with how it turned out. Went to...
