All together minus the oko carb.

Minor fitment issues as expected with the exhaust. The biggest issue is that it not only touches the air box, but tries to occupy the same space so much that there is no real adjusting for it. I tried my best to tweak things, and bought it a little air gap, but it still started melting. I put a big wad of fibergladd wrapped in header wrap between the two and some thermal foil on the corner of the air box and it seems to be working. Likely I will have to modify the airbox, but I am going to switch to a pod filter for now so I can work on a solution.

The oko carb was a no go. The boot angles it down more than I would like, and not outward enough. It could work as is, but I want the carb more level. I am working on another solution at the moment that hopefully pans out. Othetwise I will be using a Mikunoiz adapter.

The mikuni needs a bigger main. My jet kit is missing the 120, but had 2 100 jets... figures. I have a genuine 120 on order. The 125 I have is just too rich. It might be ok with a pod filter, but not a modded airbox. So my top speed hasnt changed much, but I can now cruise along at 60 and maintain it. It just has nothing left in it with the main being so lean.
