    Hello all, new hear, and back on a bike after 18 years. I have a 500 Interceptor and I picked up a 83 650 Maxim for my wife. This a twin for the bike she used to ride 18 years ago, but it is having some troubles. It has 29000 K's on it and sat for most of the past 3 years. We rebuilt the front brake and master cylinder, cleaned and put new needle and seats in the carbs. It is very hard to start and often misses on 1 cylinder. Anyway I found this site while trying to find answers to my troubles. I will have a good look around. Thanks for having a nice site like this.

    Welcome to the site! I'm sure your find what your looking for here as there is a ton of experiance floating around! Check the seach for your problem and check out the carb cleaning and adjusting threads as this seems to be the most common issue among us, you may also want to post your location and bike info so if anyone is near by you may get some hands on help, feel free to post pic's so we can see what your working on and how it's coming just shrink them to 500x500.
