Howdy! I'd say the lawn needs some work too, but that's mox-nix... Now get that work done and get some riding in soon! You've still got a good chunk of riding season left, get some miles in!

Welcome to our site, Hawker !!!
Visit our Riding Skills section. Be careful with those tires, they may be very hard if original.

Oh and by the way, I replaced the rear tire with a Pirelli Sport Demon and plan to switch out the front tire at some point in time. Thank you all for the warm welcome, I've been lurking around here finding lots of useful information.

Is the left bar bent downward and back some? One doesn't notice it immediately due to the right bar being completely wonky, but it looks like the left one isn't completely straight either. Also, be careful when trying to get the cap off the brake reservoir, it looks like the left screw is rusted. You'll want to soak that with some WD40 or penetrating oil for a while before even trying to get it open. Stripped phillips-head screw heads can be a massive bitch... BTDT.
