Absolutely. And mostly incorrect as well.

Just wanted to stop back and say, that i installed a big sucker AC and a set of the old SE slip ons, (they are loud when you crack the throttle) rejetted the carb to a 46 slow jet and a 180 main. Replaced the intake seals and the rubber boot to the manifold/carb. It really made a big difference! its not a slug anymore.. and i am very happy with it.. carb had a 42/170. it was popping out the carb all the time. This winter i'll install a EV13 cam and the good bearing...

No one else mentioned it, so I will ... check the gearing. How many teeth does the rear pulley have?

You want a 70th tooth and I'd suggest a small compensator sprocket too.

I'm with those who said 'leave it be'. That's a great purchase and it will hold its value.

With that paint job, we'd call them "ice cream trucks".
