    Well here she is. I got her legal today. I haven't sync'd the carb yet but it's running good enough. A little sluggish in the higher rpm's.

    Looks nice to me!! Get out and ride it, and ride it, and then ride it some more.

    No. I'm just going to do it myself. I already cleaned them and I don't think they're very far off from where they should be. Apparently my method of bench syncing works.

    Your carbs are rusted inside? If they're really bad I'd look into getting a set on Ebay. You can get a good decent set for under 100. Try to get one from a bike that was running.

    I sync'd the carbs yesterday using the $4 homemade tool and it works pretty good. The bike runs alot better too. It's no longer sluggish below 7K like it was.
