The carb was not the stock piece, finally got the correct jets on the way. I had ordered jets for the bike and had them sent to Chris. Upon arrival the jets were not even close. Re-ordered thinking I made a mistake...
Wrong second time What the heck..
Found out the carb was off a 65 or something similar... Ordered jets again.. back ordered for a week. now they are on the way..again..
(sent Chris the tracking #)
