Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Got the coil relay in, .08 drop now is all, I'll take it. Fuel tee installed, she no leaky.
Got it outside and put the bottle on it and fired right up. I took a video, it's uploading now and I will post it in a bit.

Isn't that bottle up a little too high? Most I've seen have been right at the handlebar height.
Glad you got it running again though.

Thanks, felt really good to hear it start up. Lots of blood and sweat to this point, the payoff in the end will be well worth it.
There is something special about taking a rusted hulk back to a reborn state, like it talks to ya during.
Gonna sync it all up this weekend. Been working the brakes last few days, both calipers and both mc's re-sealed. Shooting for a weekend ride if all goes well.

I glass bead blasted the caliper then put 2 coats of clear over it. I thought the raw metal look would look different and nice but not sure about it yet, what do you think of it.

Not sure yet.
It kind of matches the engine, rims, carbs, sprockets, etc.
Waiting for the completed project to form an opinion.
Of course, the ONLY opinion that counts is your own.

Weeeeeeeeeee, ran it down the road a few miles. I like the slight forward feel of the daytona bars versus the original, comfortable.
Power and acceleration was good. Brakes are good and ride was nice. I rebuilt the petcock but it's not shutting off so gonna replace it.
Just before the short ride:

Finished the wet sand with 600. 2 coats of Omni MP182 hi-build 2k followed by 2 more and another wet sand. First medium coat of Jet-Glo deep red on, so far so good.
