20k miles. Valves checked and within spec. Compression 125 across the board, leakdown at 5% across the board.
No pods. Per vance/hines pipes recommendations, rejetted mains to 95 and ditched airbox lid. Hasnt been sitting long since I've owned it - 1yr.
I suspect its had a rough life as it had pods when I got it, front tire was on backwards, dead battery, dead r/r, flat black rattlecan paint job.
Now has stock airbox, rejuvinated airbox boots, rebuilt carbs, new intake o-rings, new cables, new brakes lines and pads, new air filter foam, new OEM petcock, new fuel / vacuum lines, coil relay, new points, new tires, gs1000 wire rims, new bearings, LED bulbs, new cap resistors, new hydro clutch, new oem clutch plates, new chain, etc.
Tossed in new plugs to run some chops and found #4 is dead rich at idle. Going to repull the carbs and look at the idle jets.
Edit: Oh, yeah, will re-vacuum sync onced #4 rich issue is solved.
