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! Whoo hoo!
I'll try to get a short video of it running. Bring on the track days!
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.
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:
