new bike!!!

The dragstar bobber is gone, sold to an old friend that will take good
care of her. the little Kawasaki is also sold, nearly finished the
project tho he he...

All other bikes sold because I finally caved to the old harleyswamp...
bought a 99 sporty, so yeah not all people consdier that a real
Harley... they should try mine, and then go home and cange their
underwear. it's a monster.

Kawalainen...

So I have come to the conclusion that the mikuni carbs were waaaaaaay too big for the kawai and so I had Jens fabricate a 2 into 1 carb manifold. After mounting that the engine still ran way rich so what to do? Comb the forums and hunt down all the carb experts etc etc... after much reading and testing on the bike I decided that the needle jet is too big as well....
Over to Ebay to order various sizes of jets.
wait.
get package in mailbox.
mount and test different sizes.
voila!
still running a bit rich but its going in the right direction ....

Also I find myself looking at hd Sportster ads at Blocket...... they are pretty affordable plus you got endless aftermarket stuff to choose from.... lets see what happens...
If I buy a sportster I need to sell both the Kawa and the Yamaha... ouch....

Single Carb Conversion.

Clean and Simple.
THANK YOU JENS!!
