Current state of things:





Runs great!  Needs jetting but feels pretty close.  Still needs bark busters, kill switch, safety wire, sliders, number plates, inner fender, gearing detailing, a better clutch lever/perch, and a bunch of other random sh!t.

Had to cut the drain nipple and boss off the carb bowl and clearance the case.  Did both with a dremel and a carbide cutter bit.

Current state of things as of last night.

Lots of rips around the block.  Will be taking it to the industrial wasteland guerrilla test track this weekend to work on jetting, brakes and suspension tuning.
