An actual test ride after 6 months on the stand. Carbs seem good, no major leaks, cleaned and flushed clutch master. Need to be bled more but...
Thanks for the positive vibes all! I wish I had a smokin clean garage. I swear I am not a pig like my workspace appears in these photos. lol
What a PITA to get the fuel tank hoses to line up. Jeezus We are now running off of the fuel tank, no gas leaks yet. Lol my wife helped me actuate...
[ATTACH] If I was a snowflake I would take offense! Thanks Capt! cleaned, fitted, and polished tail section. Came out nice in my book. Had to...
Moron, call me moron. Adjusted cable more at the bar and everything is good. My gauges work too! Idle around 1200 and sitting pretty. [ATTACH]
Crazy fresh!

I did have a white throttle tube, but it was too damaged to attach any grip to... dang. Good info. I will need to get a new tube. $16 on Honda...

No digital clock. I think it is an 87. 16" front wheel. It has the welded passenger pegs. 88 started bolt on. I have been known to be wrong on...
I have been meaning to get back to you on the tail section. Is that the part that has the blue on it?
If I get home early today, then I will check the throttle cable connections. Overall the throttle cable is a little loose at the carb fitting, but...
What does wide open throttle do?
Thanks dudes. It is now super bowl time, so next weekend for this follow up. Can’t say this wasn’t frustrating but the bike did actually run so...
So now she wants to rocket to the moon with no choke or throttle while stone cold. I definitely fucked up the idle settings. Time to pull carbs I...
