I still have a couple parts orders to make and a few local parts round ups to do.Then I can get down to completing the bike for testing.Once testing and tuning is done,it's time for stripping and painting.Pretty much going to be back close to stock but not quite.You'll just have ta wait n see.
I couldn't find carb rebuild kits in stock, so I ordered new needle and seats along with bowl gaskets.I am planning to buy a metric master O ring kit.What will hold up better to the blended fuels,viton or neoprene?According to McMaster Carr,neither is suited for use with alcohol,but both are rated for gasoline.Now that's a but scratcher.
