She's nearly ready for the summer I gave up on the original carbs and went with some mikunu 32's and it's running well. She might not be to everyone's taste but I'm really happy with it and it's fun to ride.

Nothing wrong with it. A nice looking bike. Glad to see you are unwrapping that horrible exhaust tape stuff. Itll look a lot better once youre rid of that!

Looks too clean for a dirt bike. Did you just wash it? Agree about losing the "wrap". :P
