Hey guys, sorry but I got so involved in the project I didn't take any pics along the way, but IT STARTS!!!!! :D After a month and a half and all of the boxes that the bike came in, IT STARTS!!!!! Now I just have to fix all the bugs. It is ideing high at startup and even when warm, about 4200rpm :shock: , I'm just thinking that I should rebuild the carbs (keeping in mind that all I was doing was putting the puzzle together and not really disassembling anything for cleaning). I figure that should cure that. I'll give her an oil change. and see what happens from there. Over the winter I will be doing a complete teardown with new paint, degreasing everything, etc. basically a compete restore is the project for now, it may change as the weather grows cold. :mrgreen: If anybody has any other ideas to get it smooth for now, please advise, and thanks again.
