Now my interest is sparked, that is riding it/her. Oldsmobile Hill would be a good test. Hope the jetting is close.

right on dude. looks sweet. that should light the rear tire up on the pavement. if ir dont something is wrong. i had a few more mods when that cylinder was on my machine but it should be just as good for you. i fiddled with my ignition alittle, eliminated my air box for a high flow k&n, cut the reed stops out and had some carb work done. theres still a few more horses left in that combination on your bike

The thing friggin rips, Ive only gone round the block twice and it scared me on the way back........
I havent been on a real ride yet to give a real report, Ive been going easy on it due to the new rings and hone, I fully expect this thing to scare the shit outta me on a regular basis

right out of the gate i used a 220 just for kicks. ran real good up to full throttle but couldnt get it to clean itself all the way out on top. dropped it 200 with 105 oxy fuel and it ran good after that. keep the airfilter real clean. you need as much air through there as possible. sounds like your on the right track.
