I'll post one when I get it all bottoned up. Give me some time, I need to go back through my carbs and get my O2 sensor mount sorted.

Scott,
I'm working my way toward that. There is on more little electronic bit that I haven't shown yet which I want to install first. It will allow me to do some baseline testing prior to the 1075 kit. It's all part of my plan, but there has just been a big delay in the middle. I'll get there.

chugga chugga chugga chugga choo choo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

keep at it when you can sir, :evil:
we can't wait to see the results.

That's kinda what it sounds like when you ease away from a stop right now. I guess I still have some stuff in two of my pilot circuits. I went ahead and ordered new air bleed jets, pilot air needles, jet block gaskets, and choke rod rubber seals to make sure everything in the carbs is as new as I can get.

It wasn't a problem before, so I'm sure there is a little bit of the green stuff stuck in two of the pilot passages. Runs fine once you get past the pilot circuits.

I got one exaust collar that was too small, so I can't run it yet. Chris is going to overnight me a new one. I can't wait to hear the new pipe!!!

once you get them carbs sorted and your new header installed we won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.

Hi,

Have you had a chance to hear the pipe yet? I am ready to order one but I'm worried that it will be too loud. I am torn between the motogpwerks and the Vance and Hines. I plan to do some touring so an overly loud pipe can bother after a few hours of riding.

Yep, and there is more to come, I'm just waiting on a few bits to show up on my doorstep.

Last night I pulled the carbs, and to my surprise, my son asked to help me out. I had to pull the old Fred Sanford heart attack routine since he never wants to help me with these kind of things. We confirmed what I was thinking. Number 2 and 4 had clogged pilot jets again. I went ahead and pulled the carbs completely apart for a comprehensive cleaning. I don't want to clean out the jets only to have this happen again.
