IT RUNS!
well, sorta
I was able to ride around the neighborhood for a good while, didn't want to take it too far from home as its still running on 5 year old MD tags.
It still ran a little rough and would sometimes die if I came to a stop, so I'm thinking the idle could use some adjusting?
anyway - I started to take the carbs off last night, to give them a solid once over. I need to figure out how to disconnect the throttle cables and the.....carb setting bands? at least thats what I think its called - this thin piece of metal that connects the choke lever to both carbs?
anyway - its fun to get dirty with it at least
