Default test ride

I took my "frankenpan" out for a little ride yesterday....it rides like a scow. I think I have neck bearing a little loose and front end seems divey, I'm workin outta town and have the bike with me to keep me busy after work ...only problem is that I,m livin in the hills...I don't want to have to push this turd home. The motor felt good, and the tranny shifted well, the belt could use some more attention and I hate the feel of the floorboards and the toe heel shfter...I,m not bitchin too much...just a real different feel....I like the bike,,,gotta get use to it.
