well. she was on the road for about 10 minutes today. Father-in-law took it out to test the clutch, motor, handling ect(since he has oh say 40 years riding experience on me) made it to the end of the driveway and starts sounding horrid. takes off screamming down the road it started to sound fine. long story short, carb needs adjusted more. The Real kicker, left a nice long oil trail comming out of the primary. turns out the outer primary is cracked at the bottom of the derby cover(where it looks like it had been laid down at before). so no pictures of it in the sun yet. Altho i will say from about 100ft away you can't see the flames pics comming soon i promise!
