Well, today I got some nice weather (+8*C) and some spare time, so I went ahead and stuck the motor in the bike.

The night I put her together, I was drinking with some friends and I SOMEHOW managed to jam the cam in 90* off, but I checked it before I started it and found it. I corrected it in about 5 minutes, and fired it up. It runs ok, but the cam tensioner is busted...the spring came apart inside and allows the cam chain to run slack. I need to get this addressed before i run it anymore, but it hits pretty hard!!

Videos to follow VERY shortly...hopefully by tonight.
