    Well I can't f'n believe it. First motorcycle I've ever owned, bought it not even knowing what the controls were, and now she runs. After I cleaned the carbs, replaced the fusebox, and changed the oil and gas she fired right up. Took full choke for maybe 5-10 minutes and then no choke. She runs kind of rough but it's a vast improvement over how she ran before. I'm stoked.

    Carb synch will help make it run much smoother.
