The Final Word

Here it is. The final word on this.

I spent 2.5 hours working on this thing this afternoon and it's not worth it.

The jetting wasn't as hard as I made it out to be. The midrange was spot on and the main jet only required an increase to 125. The idle mixture only needed to be slightly tuned.

Even then, aside from some AWESOMELY raunchy noise under full throttle, the bike makes no more power. I did notice a loss of power taking off from a stop, but it was negligable. As Badbob mentioned in another post, it was, unfortunately a waste of time.

I'll post some photos from the process tomorrow morning.

I'm a bit discouraged, but I've got the bike back together and she's ready for the ride down to Franklin tomorrow.

SEe you then,
Jonathan
