    He used a throttle housing for a spacer...

    I am betting it does, I cant see someone going through the hassles of installing a throttle housing that doesn't have any innards, is waaaaay to wide and has incorrect shaft size and basically hollow, doesn't make sense when it seems it would be easier to make a spacer out of pipe if your...

    He used a throttle housing for a spacer...

    does it have a slot in it that matches the raised rectangle on the inside of the fork on that side? in other words, its there to keep the housing from rotating, on the opposite side of the slot, the rim side, there will be 2 tabs protruding that fit into the rim, these turn with the rim while...

    Powder Coating Wheels

    are you doing the powder or taking it somewhere? if your taking it, remove the bearings, if you are doing them yourself, leave the bearings in and protect them while media blasting and coating. its a pain, but cheaper and if your doing the work, you can protect them. I'm not sure if that helped...

    RPMs stay high after i rev it up.

    I would go richer (I have an 81, open pipes and pods at 145 mains and average 52 mpg's), I also would also check the mating surface of the intakes to the head. my bike did exactly as you described and it was sucking air. once checked, cleaned and tightened up, no more issues.
