That’s funny. My good buddy had a shop back in the 90’s called Vishous Cycle. Spelled that way cause he was known as Vish.
"Viscous Cycles" Portland Oregon has been a local source for tires, and even used parts as they are very involved in the local track racing and custom scene. One of the last remaining old small accessory and service shops.My good buddy had a shop back in the 90’s called Vishous Cycle.
Finally spent some free time and finished the wiring in the headlight bucket and on the rear of the bike. Fresh gas in the new tank and she fired right up. I have not fine tuned the carbs at all. This video is with the settings as the carbs came back from Rick at OldSkoolCarbs. Got a hanging idle when I crank the bars to the right, so I’ll need to address that still too. First time I’ve heard this pipe/muffler combo. I like it. A little on the loud side but I don’t mind at all. Took it for a short rip up the road and I’m pretty happy. Unfortunately the old Chen Shin tires are about shot, so I need to squirrel away some cash for new tires before I can safely put any miles on her.
Conti Go's are not a bad choice. Running them on my XS2 and BMr. They work well. Have ridden in rain with them and no complaints. Got 6000 smiles on them on the XS2, front good for a lot more, back 2 or 3 more. I even put them on my X-75. Not ridden the X-75 yet, mainly put them on it to piss off Brit purist friends of mine.classic K70 tires or a more modern tire.

How's the compression on that cylinder?Am I missing something blatantly obvious here?
I don’t have a tester
Don't forget to try that too. I ain't sayin' it is low compression... only that it could be.Only thing I haven’t tried is switching plug wires from side to side.
