Holy cow... it has an engine in it! Just needs some little stuff; sprocket cover, carb boots, and exhaust holders & collars. Hope to hear it run within a week or so!

Well work it out so in a year or two I can copy and paste your experience into my bike \m/

The bike looks mean as hell by the way and I usually don't like the short brat style

And for the first time ever, I rebuilt a set of carbs haha. Not bad at all!
