I figure I'm due for an update so here goes.
I figured out my RPM issues, my damn throttle cable housing was too long and it was holding my throttle plates open abt half way.
I don't know how I missed it, what a newb mistake.
Once that was taken care of I took the bike to a small shop called Wedman's Motorsports to have them take a look at my charging issue. Chris Wedman is the man, super good guy and they can do just abt anything in house. They do machinework there as well, Chris made my wheelspacers a while back and integrated a sleeve into them to adapt my 17mm axle to harley wheel bearings out front. It turned out I had my wiring a lil goofy, not getting power to the coils or something he said. Other than that, all my wiring was good.
Speak of the devil.. I got the recent issue of The Horse in the mail and saw something that looked a little familiar...
You can see in the pics that that he used a bit of pipe to let the valves slide up and down in, not the valve guides like we talked about. Pretty loose fit..
Bike is running, not perfectly tuned but getting there, bottom end is a lil muddy but it ran pretty good when we shot this:
What do you guys think? Sorry, no seat cover yet.
