It's been ages since I got my work done on the bike. Today was a great day to get back in to it. Today's plan was to finally finish the carbs, I had ordered in some hole punches and felt so I could make some replacement felt washers for the ones missing on the slide linkage and choke holes. It worked very well:
Next up I made a float tool, set to 24mm (+2mm on stock) based on PJ's recommendations. The floats were all over the place height wise so it good to get them lined up:
Finally I put all the carbs back together with all fresh parts, managed to find some rubber tube for the vent linkage so its all ready to rock and roll. Once all together I bench synced the slides using a bit of wire and set the max slide height. All ready to go:
Also received another batch of parts this week, oil filter, rear brake switch, horn and LED switch. All in preparation for finishing off the wiring:
Lastly I started running wires for the custom loom, turns out I have to redo the fuse box wires as I didn't make it long enough to fit under the seat. Of well, this time I'm going to run wires and leave a bit of excess so I've got safety margin:
