Well, we fell back 6 pages...

;) It feels like an eternity.


We finally got some reasonable weather here so we set out to fine tune the carbs. We added K&N filters, drilled out the smallest mains we had, played with the needles and got it running like a champ right up to and past red line! :cheer: Whoo hoo! :P

I'll try to get a short video of it running. Bring on the track days! B)

There are still a few minor details to finish on it, but we're ready. :)

Thanks JR! It's pretty close, but the carbs need a little fine tuning. We'll get it though! ;)

Thanks for the support and encouragement gang. :cheer:

We're gonna keep fiddling with the carbs to see if we can get it 'perfect'. ;) Might as well... no track days on the horizon yet. :laugh:
