Another newb

Greetings all. A short while back I saw a Craigslist ad for a street legal CR500 and thought "now that would be fun" so I started searching around and ended up with this:
She's a 91 that had been barn stored since 2005. Overall it's in pretty good shape, though I haven't had much time to go over it quite yet. A quick carb clean and some fresh gas and she fired right up! I gave a grand for it, I think I did pretty well on that.
The goal is to use it for the occasional desert ride, make it street legal and possibly use it in the winter as a snow bike as well. For now I'm going to keep her a steelie, but I am contemplating a gen4 AF conversion someday. This is my first Honda and my first 2 stroke in 12 years, looking forward to learning all I can about my new toy!
