Hi all

Last weekend picked up my new ( to me ) 2018 bullet 500. I think it is a B5, according to the identifier on Hitchcocks site, but the wiring diagrams in the handbook are for a C5  :-\.

Regardless of that, it is one of the best bikes I have ever ridden. Nearly as much fun as my Jawa 350 sideca outfit and a lot better than the Himalayan I traded in for it. The H was a good bike but it never suited me :(

Congratulations, you'll have a lot of fun

The B5 and C5 are basically the same bike apart from some minor frame differences at the rear.

     Welcome to the madness.

      That's a beautiful color. The new generation bikes (after the AVL) are very good looking.

       Your Dyane has been rode hard & put away wet for many years  :) &, like 2CVs, they take a licking (anything you can give them) & keep on ticking.
