Bummer. At least there's some meat to work with.

Carbs. Installed, and set up. The left one will not quiet reach wide open, by maybe .010" at the carb stop. The geometry is set right. We will see.

Re: Hotrod touring
Both throttle stops hitting wide open perfectly. Throttle shaft nut on left carb. not tightened... There's a bit of slop on the weber universal cam, and throttle shaft.

Re: Hotrod touring
Sweeeeeet! Looks very 'light' compared to a stocker... I'm going to have to go back and look at what you did to the front wheel and brakes. Me like! (Although I think the pattern on the drilled disks is backward...)
As to the knock, RPM related, front, back, heads, clutch in or out...???

Re: Hotrod touring
Lol i didn't even notice. Actually when I got the rotors, I looked for a left or right to no avail. I next looked on the www, then I decided to just mount them the way I liked, which is backwards. But then that's me.
