Default Finished build- 1st start

We pushed the start button for the FIRST time on my Dyna build. In a micro- second it cranked and purrrred like a mountain lion. No smoke and no noise or ticks, sounded better than a brand new engine. Great throttle responce first start. Time to dial it in and break it in. Jugs and heads have fresh wrinkle blk paint. Happier than a boyscout in a girlscout camp.

Ill try to post a video tomorrow when she's dialed in. Wish we were at the pub, I'd buy the first 15 rounds. Never saw an engine "first start" crank so effortlessly and run so fine. HOT DANG IT MAN.

Thanks, Ill hold ya to that. Thanks everyone for their input and the calming of my case of nerves. Like GB brown said, it's like waiting on a baby to be born. I think this will be my best build so far, cant believe how well it came to life.

Tommorrow Ill try to post live in action video. That shovel avatar is just an avatar, I love that Shovel old school stuff. When I was a teenager all my buds had knuckles and Shovels. Screwy Louie, Monty the monster, Halfbreed. They all lived up to their name. My cousin Halfbreed was pres over a MC in LA back in the 60s. He was a Green Bret then later fought full contact karate at the highest level. He was the original Joe Cool and my best friend . Sorry for reminesing, have another one on me. This is a pic of my 97 wg build bike when I first bought it.
