Hi all,
I've loved Loreli since the day I bought her. She's not perfect, but
BEAUTIFUL to me. I never realized how subdued she really was in her current
state, tho. First of all, I didn't realize her brakes were in as bad a shape
as they were. They are no longer. Now she stops SCARY fast thanks to 4 new
pads and a bleed (love my speed bleeders!). Also got my flow meter and have
the carbs a LITTLE closer to being in balance. (Solexes are a PAIN, but
worth it!). I still have issues there, but I'm headed in the right
direction. I always wondered why I couldn't really BURN my tires. Now I
know. HEHEHEHE!
I'm in love with my old gal all over again!

And of course Loreli (she's a 70' Silver Solex SRL311)
