just been down today to make a mad rush for some bits that were required... I had to get a petrol tap for it... only a harley one would do... and also two ballancing pipes for it.

been doing some chrome work on it.. and hopefully this bike will roll out by thursday next week for the show on friday sat and sun..

less than a week away and all should be done.... alot longer than I wanted but hey .. its nearly there.

anyone give me any suggestion on the carbs.. I am putting K&N filters on it tomorrow.. and will need to know if there a pain in the back side to ballance or not.

Yes I have a YICS tool... thankfully!

 

nobody has any advice on the carb set up!!! EEEK.

ok.

 

You know why, be honest!

Everyone here reckons fitting pods make the bike run worse and be a pig to set up!

Sorry.

 

Im running pods with long straight pipes. with the stock jets. and it runs better than when I changed to bigger jets.

 

what rear is that rear fender from orig? sick looking bike! nice lines!

 

ok thanks I think... will just play it all by ear.. rear fender/mudguard is a billy lane special

 

Good to see it's comeing to an end. It looks great

 

Thanks bud... yours in the one that inspired me.... I can remember asking loads of questions... Thank you again bud...
btw.. got some more the frame is now painted.. and completly done.. just doing electrics today... and then oil change etc today / tomorrow if time is allowed... wed it will go in for its test.. ie MOT or vehical inspection... and then thursday its rideable....


fingers crossed.
