Hi Ernest, welcome to the group. It's good to see a fellow 800 owner, those 1500ers are starting to take over!   ;D

lol  1500 can take over. the 800 is the prettier bike.  seems to capture the essences of the old Harley rigids (hard tales), 45 cubic inch for sure.

Welcome Ernest:
So battery is really easy to swap out. What is wrong with the carb? If the bike is running then a couple of glugs into a a fuel tank of fresh gas of SeaFoam just might be the answer.
800's are so much fun to tinker on and to ride....

Hello, I'm Ernest from Houston, TX.  This is more or less my first post.  I've been following Forum Threads for a while.

Recently purchased my first Drifter (800) as a project.  I'm scheduled to receive it tomorrow.  The story on the bike is that it needs the carburetor cleaned and a new battery.

I hope you guys can help me bring this lovely back to its full potential, looking forward too communicating with the group.

Thanks!

Ernest
