New member in Wisconsin

Hello everyone,
My name is Jake. I’m located in central Wisconsin. I’ve lived and worked on our family farm, which I recently took over, my whole life. I’ve worked on a lot of different equipment but I’m certainly not an expert mechanic. Just enough to get me in trouble! I grew up on atvs and use to do a little racing. Switched to dirt bikes about 7 years ago. Very little on road experience. Ended up with a ktm 530 exc that I put the majority of my road miles on. Was looking for something a bit more suited for the road.
I picked up a 92 seca 2 from a buddy about a week ago. He’s had it in his shed for the past 7 years without running it! Only has 6500 miles on it! Got it running, albeit quite rough, a few days ago.
Going to start with getting it running better and in safe riding condition so I can put a few miles on it this fall. Then this winter get into making it look a little nicer and a few of the finer details.
Looking forward to gleaning through all the information here and interacting with everyone.
Thanks for having me!
