Don't jinx yourself, it cannot be avoided if you know of the problem and done nothing about it and then it will bite you in the ass! Try to think of all of the smallest things that could least likely quit or break down on you and check them, I have learned from alot from small problems 8)

No Ody, that only seems to work for you, the king of carnage, the captain of crunch.

Too much! lol. Retighten everything, and greese what ever nipples you got, (not hers, well maybe). For me, I felt the same way Until I decided to hook up the oil cooler and found I can't make the conections with out kinking the hoses. Today I cut and relocated the filter braket. Then went for a ride. I still want to re-locate the fuel tank lower and then redo the oil cooler frame/mount. Then I should be able to run the oil lines without restrictions. Hey there's always something! It's half the hobby! LOL.

Ive been tearin up the yard and up and down the road today, forgot how fast 4thgear is on a 6rib. But can definitly tell that 3rd and 4th never get used considering when i put it in 3rd it got stuck there for a minute. I think everything is ready to go, Think I even have my carbs right. No sputtering , Can put'r to the wood from idling along and it takes it no problem Thats what I was shooting for so Im happy with it. :mrgreen:
