Sorry it took so long to answer your last post, I am still trying to figure out all of this "post" stuff. My project was quit an undertaking. Once the thrill of finding what I thought was the "Right" bike for a project was over, I almost got sick to my stomach!!!!! It was pretty bad! Shock seals, plastics, radiators, controls, cables, pipe, muffler,..... you name it, I found something wrong with about every system on the bike. However...now I couldn't be more pleased with this resurrected fire breather! Still working on some carb issues but with the help of this site and a great jetting chart, I think I have a good handle on the carb issues. Post some pics of your project and let me see it!
