Forgot to up date this! Got a new starter solenoid in her and everything is good to go, should have some fresh pictures in the build thread soon!

Just pulled the carbs off to adjust the float height and check all that jazz hopefully I'll have them finished up soon. I ran into another problem that happened before to me while riding this bike. I'd park somewhere after a perfectly normal ride, turn the key off, come out of the store or...

Idling a bit high still, about to take the carbs back off anyway because she's leaking out of two of the overflows. Not sure what it could be other than a stuck float witch I just fixed... grrr... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o794WJQdDuc

Well, got the new harness all fixed without too many problems and actually got her started earlier today! Of course after rebuilding the carbs they two middle ones are leaking from the overflow. I'm really concerned its a cracked downstem overflow thing or whatever the tech term is for it. I...

Purring like a kitten that needs its carbs tuned haha, thanks again guys! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TM9dEC1oDIw

ooohh... (slowly backs into shadowy corner) Lol all sorted now thankyou! Video will be up on the build thread once the carbs are dialed in hopefully in the next day or two!

Also, important question before I forget it and ride like this. Whats this piece called that goes where i have that screwdriver? My garage floor ate mine.

GOT THE KEY!!!! WOOOO!!!! But it didn't work for the handlebar lock... just the ignition. Even though they're the exact same key... So fwustwaiting. She's all set to start up but I think I'm missing something stupid in my wiring too. More on it later, I need a snickers or something.

BEST TIMING EVERRRRR!!!! Was just about to drop a lot more than I wanted to on some other ones. Thanks a ton haha 8)

I'd only do the top half of the engine, chrome or polish anything else. The black will make what you don't paint pop a lot more so pick out what you'd like to highlight on the bike. My engine is all black now and i love the way it looks but only because my frame isn't black and nor is my tank...
