Cold start throttle squirts have the same bog, well for me anyway. So I wouldn't be concerned with it unless the bike was already at running temperature.
Seems eager to go... |

Still ice cold I have yet to run her for more than a minute as I really wanna change the oil before giving her the beans (has about a half bottle of Kroil washed down into the crankcase) Today's goal was just checking the carb for leaks and to make sure the battery is getting charged while running (14.4v, so it's good). Plan on ripping out all the old burnt wiring and tidying up a few things for a short road test if I have time tomorrow. |

I like that custom spoke lacing on the rear wheel. It looks like the rims are bespoke for that lacing pattern. It is another unique part of that piece of working art from Cleveland.
It could be kind of rare. I don't know how many they sold, but hand built customs like this are not made in high production numbers! ![]()
