    Took out my bike for the first time today!

    I got my bike back from the shop this morning then went for a 30 mile ride tonight. I am hoping to get my license in a few weeks. I have been riding three wheelers since 5th grade and rebuilding them since 8th grade. I will be graduating from high school on friday and have a 1981 Yamaha Seca 750 to ride for the summer. Life is good.

    I had the shop synchronize the carbs. Being that it is my first 4 cylinder bike I didn't want to screw it up, yet .

    I have been riding trikes for the last 7 years or so but am running out of land to ride on. There are a few housing developments going up around me taking up my space but there are plenty of roads. Here's a pic. of my bike.
