I finished my clutch M/C on Sunday and got tired of waiting on my front discs (B/O 3 weeks now) so I put my front end back together so I don't miss any more 80° driving days.

Just about to go down and adjust my carbs after changing the venturis and main jets then, hopefully, go for a nice long drive. 

Was it Stan or Ed that posted “90% of carbs problems are ignition related?” 


After chasing a mid-range stumble for a month last summer, I finally realized I had a faulty coil. 

The good news? I did it so often I got it DOWN! I adjusted my Dellortos in under 20 minutes.

And the Wilwood clutch master is a huge improvement over what I had. I just need to adjust the pedal down a bit so I can operate it with my ankle instead of my whole lower leg. But I can shift into first at a standstill now instead of having to do an Irish shift. (2->1)

 

Kinda bummed I’m not bedding in some new brakes, though.
