Thanx CKAU- It really sounds good now!! After re-cleaning the carbs again it still ran poorly. So I've spent the last couple of days trying to figure out why.The gunk in the bowls was so thick I had to pull the bowls out off the floats and didn't realize how sensitive the float level is on these carbs. After readjusting them about a 100 times I finally got it to run right!!! either it closed off the main or it overflowed with the slightest adjustment (crazy) Got my shifter cables in and getting the pedals re-located and a shifter base made is the next chore. I still have some more electrical work to do when I verify the thing is worth spending more time on. Bleeding all the brake lines now that I have all of them run is another time consuming chore before testing!!!I really want to test this thing to see if I built a pile of junk from a pile of scrap or something to get my blooding flowing!!!!!
