Ok,I'm glad to say after countless hours after work in the evenings with the help of ,2 people on here,,I'm sure you know who you are ,I finally got my old bike together ,fired up yesterday and put the first 100 on it,had to adjust the new clutch a few times,and had to have a hotwire to start it,just gotta work a few bugs out. But I am so happy with all the changes,rear sprocket smaller ,cruises nicer,primary belt drive,less vibration,more power ,really happy with the new cam,,the old carb still spits and sputters so I'll throw a stage 1 in the cv I have and try that out,But MAN!! my dear old Dad was watchin me leave with 5 riding friends ,all on evo's and he says I was leavin them in the dust.
And Twizted ,you were sure right about that clutch on a belt drive,it sings its own song now,,Thanks for all your help.

 

Glad to hear you're up and running!! Your shovel, wether or not it'll outrun evo's or twinkies, has them all outclassed by a HUGE margin!!! When you all park somewhere, you'll soon see which bike the onlookers check out!!!
Have fun!!!

Good to have another Shovel on the road.

 

Yah all the looks you'll get at stoplights or backing in at the hangout are priceless , you'll have fun .

Some real old school with the clutch rattle , get them every time .

 

I agree 100%

 

It's a great feeling to finally be on that first ride after putting so much work into it.... you never get that from just buying a new one....congrats!

 

Good to read that you are up and running...and in time for summer riding.
