Hear hoop welded on and fender mounted. Have about 2" of travel and 90/130 springs ... may have to bump the rate up a bit so I don't bottom out

It'll probably get lifted to stock height next week when I get back home from travel

Seat pan done, only the front mouting/tabs need to be figured out. bolt that secures the rear fender also secures the back of the seat in place

Like I suggested in another post, a Lanyard for the key will keep it with the bike in case it comes out while riding.

Really haven't done much for a while due to family visiting but getting back into it.

Started cleaning the carbs again. First time I did it, I only cleaned the bowls out and blew some cleaner through and didn't really mess with anything else. Have gone through 2 for now and have set up the floats according to a Mikuni BS34 rebuild guide I found online (they were totally off when set up with bowl off) .. will need to verify this when I do the clear tube level test. Pilot was clogged and I may have to dig back in again as the Jets are all stock and the bike now has pod filters and 4-1 header by previous owner ... still chugging along. Will prob need a jet kit and some misc seals, o-rings, and plugs

Turn signals/tail lights came in! The dual filament reds will do great with my self cancelling turn signal/brake light controller
