Well it's together and fired, #3 cylinder missing, circuit plugged somewhere in the carb and 2 other floats sticking, carb cleaning time. Going to try the RS34's tomorrow but I'm done today.

That's the factory anodizing still on them, part of the reason I chose to go ahead and use them on this bike, I was saving them for a green bike that I was going to build after the turbo.

That's what my intentions were, a green similar to yours only not yours. :laugh: I was going to use the 75 Z1 paint scheme with that green as the base, purple and gold for the other colors. I've got a 300 fat tire and wheel I was going to use on it with a massive stretch. I still plan on doing it but it's a few yrs down the road right now.
How's this for a wheel? :evil:

My last big block bike didn't need a kick stand, leaned it on the sidewinder at the track.

Hmm, build a kz trike and use that as a front, couple big mickeys out back. Fab a truck bed and use it as a parts chasser. Hey, I may have a new project to ponder. :woohoo:
