    The Dynatek ignition showed up Thursday so it was installed maybe 30 minutes ago. Hooked up the gravity tank, choke, and fired right off. Now for the timing check and carb sync and she will be about ready for that so anticipated first ride!!!

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      Everything on the bike works as it should. Gotta put the chain guard on and adjust the chain, put the headlight bucket and bulb on, put the seat and body work on and then roll her off the lift and see if it rolls on its own. I will need some 80 MM long bolts that go thru the seat grab rail and rear tail light brackets also.

        Got the bike at 100% ( running on the bench anyways ) and am gonna actually ride it at some point today. Got the seat grab rail / trim bolted up. The only thing missing is the chromed plastic trim that goes around the crimp on the tank. Orielleys sells rolls of different sizes so looking into that is the next step.

              Just got back from her maiden voyage. 20.4 miles and was like silk. No leaks, no issues. Gonna ride it to work all next week and get her broke in again.

                Made a stop at Oriellys for the chrome trim. Really sets off the tank nicely.

                  Another one to be proud of, Chuck.
                  It turned out great.

                    Thanks all for the positive posts. I think its time for me to slow my roll and just work on projects for friends and such. My friend Mark wants my neighbors 80 Honda CB750 Super Sport and I will most likely be heavily involved in that project. I also have the second 78 1000C in the storage unit to get after. Ive got a little bit to do this winter...LOL.

                      Well i felt sure enough about the bike to take it out on the freeway today where i could get some real life speed up. Ran at 75 MPH for maybe 10 miles and was very responsive and rode quite well. Its a fun little bike for sure.

                        130 miles ridden so far and still hoping for a few more days till it finally gets unbearable to ride to work in the mornings.

                          If you want a little more pop you can throw a 650 cam in it. Bigger bumps.
                          There's one going in the Canary's lump next weekend.
