Having said that, it will run an Andrews #2 grind cam, 8.5:1 compression and a Mikuni TM40 carb
The engine and gearbox will have 100% new bearings, seals and gaskets throughout. I have new conrods, the crank will be balanced and trued. New cadmium plated fasteners throughout. Primary will be sealed and run an oil bath. New clutch - probably Rivera Pro Clutch.
Ultima ignition, S&S oil pump.
New tappets, push rods, rocker arms and shafts. New valves, guides and springs.
So basically, it will be a totally brand new motor using the original cases, cylinders, heads and rocker covers! Everything will be set up to tighter tolerances than came from the factory and it will be run in very carefully.
For the rest of the bike, I will replace the entire wiring loom, the swing arm and head bearings and pretty much all the cables, oil lines, etc.. I'll go to LED turn signals and headlight as I like to be seen.
And a new paint job! Black with flames. Like the original factory job, but in really nice deep candy flake paint.
Other than that.....I'm not sure ;-)

Yeah, that gear drive is somethin' else. I wish I had better shot of the Pagani Zonda Revoluc'ion. That car is a masterpiece. Same with KoenĄggsegg. I want more shots of the One:1 drivetrain.

You didn't have any issues with that mechanical fuel pump on that beast?
