    So, after about three years of intermittent tinkering, it lives. Rode it to work this morning.

    There are a couple of minor issues still, like an annoying resonant buzz (inner header pipe?) and a little front brake squeak, but I can deal with that eventually. I'm not sure if idle is high or not, but it's rock solid stable at 1500 RPM.

    Likewise, you probably did it faster than I would have and you're working with a broken thumb - impressive.

    congratulations! the idle speed should be around 1100 rpm plus or minus.
