Man. The kick stand on mine is way too long and the bike goes past being strait up and wants to tump over. Lol

One thing to do with the battery that is hardly ever said is to let it sit for a couple hours after adding tye acid to let it soak in and then do a 1 amp charge for at least an hour.


If you care about engine break in then drain the cheap oil thats in the engine, get a bottle of engine break in additive and fill the rest with rotella 15w-40 dino oil. (Not synthetic).

Well I changed the oil, adjusted the valves, put on the Mikuni knock off with a 110 main and 20 pilot, changed the fuel lines and filter, put some gas in it and it fired right up. I only ran it long enough for the first heat cycle but I think I am gonna be good to go. I will check the plug after the 3rd heat cycle and then think about removing the smog crap and catalytic converter. So far I am happy.

The oil I drained from it did not smell right. It kinda smelled like solvent. I am glad that I changed it before starting it.
