    They must have been dropped at some point. Very odd to be sure. I'm happy I inspected them so closely or I'd still be messing with it since the bikes timing was spot on.

    For anyone looking for an answer. I found a crack on the top of the right carb that was causing the diaphragm to not seal. I used some JBweld to seal the crack. Bike starts, runs and revs like new.

    Ah okay. It's a stock sized headlight but not stock looking frankly. I went with a more modern style on the light. I'll be putting the whole bike together this weekend after I get the new carbs in so I'll get some pictures

    Mostly factory, I bought some new snap connectors and am working on swapping everything over. The bucket I sent fits all the factory wiring and then some. The headlight is significantly thinner than the factory light

    Okay. I finally had time to check timing. The engine at TDC lines up with the dowel position and the TDC mark on the rotor. Looks like I'm digging more

    Ah okay. That's exactly what I did. I figure It wont take anything to check it so I'll pull it to be safe
