Those were really good bikes. Great find!If it has a 60-series tire on the front (120/60-17) and you don't like the handling, I'd recommend going to a 70-series (120/70-17). The bikes had the feel of "falling into the corners" with the OEM 60-series front tire.I always liked the T-Bird Sport. We had a few at the dealership where I worked. One was a demo. Most of the T300 stuff can interchange, so keep that in mind if you decide you want cast wheels or want to hop up the engine. We put Super III pistons and cams in an Adventurer. That was fun! I think you can still get FCR flat slide carb kits from people like SUDCO, too.
First ride was wonderful and very suprising as the bike is much quicker than I imagined it would be and that's saying something for a guy who also owns a Street Triple.
When it needs a new chain, source a chain and sprockets from a T300 Tiger. You'll really like its roll-on, then!I put the Tiger chain and sprockets on my 1998 Sprint Executive and WOW!, what an improvement in acceleration!
Much appreciated for the tip. I'll have to go back and check records on this one. The owner before the guy I bought it from did have a different sprocket and chain put on it to make it quicker, just dunno what these specifically are that he installed. It's there in the records. I just need to fish it out.
Count the sprocket teeth.I don't know what stock was on the TBS, but I think the Tiger was 17/48. It's been a long time, so I can't remember for sure.
