Title: new thumper nut from South Dakota
Post by: ft500sd on February 22, 2016, 08:49:04 am

Hello all,
I just purchased an ft500 this weekend. It's  kind of a rat bike but we're gonna try to get her going again. It has starter issues of course.
I also have a Suzuki Savage for a daily rider when the snow isn't up to your ankles or higher. I'm kind of a buyer/ seller kind of guy but I've got it bad for single cylinder bikes. This Ascot has my attention right now and I love the concept it represents.
A little about me: I grew up on a ranch west of the Missouri river furthered my education in electronics which lends itself well to buying bikes with problems, fixing them and selling them. A lot of people seem to be stumped by electrical stuff. Although the younger generation seems a bit more savvy with electronics.

Anyway; that's me,

Gus

Welcome to the board. Not much activity lately due to the winter season.

Good luck with your bike.
