I am really stoked to ride. Got new Dunlop E3's front and rear. Sadly I had to work Sunday so i did not get a chance to enjoy the great weather. I did open my sun roof though on the way down I-75.

It hit 83 at my home.

Been working on a carb issue lately but managed a couple of test runs Sunday. Looks like one more float adjustment should do it. It's either flooding out the overflow, or not filling the bowl and having stall issues while racing down the road. Otherwise it runs perfectly ... damn float!
