You got that right! Thanks! Maybe if I do not run completely out of steam, I may get to Herndon for a few Dyno Pulls. I am removing the Timing map (Stock Timing) and because the engine is close, add 4% more fuel from 8K on up and use 112 Octane. The +4% should make it run about 12.6 to 12.8 Air Fuel. Not heavy rich, but when you have Wet, this should be enough I hope.

The plan is also to change the bike back to a street bike in November! Hang up the frame, Pipe, Seat and NOS (tank), low top clamp. I still have no idea of why I got into this, but I do know that since I have, I cannot 1/2 Step!

Truth be told, WHen I started this, I really did not think I was going to be doing this much (Stupid me!)! I keep making list and completing them and the new list is longer than the Old list! I just realized that I still must change plugs and modify the cover for the 19 tooth sprocket with the 46 rear and may have to use the 47 If I cannot pull the gear!

The fiberglass work on the seat was a Mother (Making Moulds and all) the Tank was about the easiest and the Frame was not a breeze either and I have not even gotten to the NOS! Good thing I have 2 different design of Bear Stacks to work with! I think for ease of installation, I am going to start with the Gold Short ones, but we will see

Latest! The paint job can only be considered a success if the plan was to make sure it was not "White"! Pictures later (Needed more base coat paint and light gray Primer!

Got everything except 1 small item relocated and started the bike it ran fine (But Loud!) You should always look before you leap! I had an 1/16 pipe tap in the kit and went through 2 hours of Rush Hour and $25 to later find this out! Problems today were the NOS Fogger fittings did not fit the NOS Express Set up! I had to replace all of the fittings and could not use the little spray Tube in the NOS Side of the Fogger. Using the tap carefully, I finally got the Nozzles in far enough! I still need a 90 degree fitting on the NOS Side and a 90 degree fitting on the fuel side to remove a little of the "Tackiness"! Mechanically I am 99% finished, but still must wire the system. I am 95% finished with the bike, I must change gearing and radius the cover for the 19 tooth and change to a 47 rear (Since I am now going to use 40 instead of 60!
