After 7 months or rebuilding it finally starts.

I finally got my bike started after working on it for the past 7 months. I still have a bit to go but it was a great feeling to finally hear it run. I now have to get the mufflers on and then work on syncing the carbs and fine tuning. Thanks to all of those who have helped so far. Sorry about the quality of the video. I had to grab my phone to take the video but hopefully I can use my nice camera to make another one after I get things tuned.

Thanks guys I really was so excited to hear it run. I felt like a little kid in a candy store! It would have been better if I could have taken it it for a spin!

Laughs great feelin huh... cant wait for mine to do the same.. Its encouraging to see someone get to that stage though, you know how sometimes it seems like a million miles away from ever riding your dream bike
