Sounds like fun... :x . Sure hope that you have it ready for Saturday!


I just mostly want to log some miles on it before I drive it all the way up there. Given any unforeseen problems I should have enough miles on it by then to trust it enough.

I put the carb back on tonight and fired her up, re-synched the carbs, re-set idle mixtures, and she sounds great. Amazing how much better it sounds running on 4 cylinders, lol. Didn't take her out though, I will tomorrow night if the weather cooperates....

I drove her tonight to get some gas. Finally got out on the open road and was able to romp on her a bit. Damn, if felt pretty fricking fast, lol. Kostya was with me and took some video, so when he gets around to it you all can see and hear it :P
