This is now my 4th bike build and I wanted to show everyone as I go to get feedback. I was unhappy with my results on my last 3 builds. Also, I've found this forum to be a really helpful, friendly and informative community, anyway here it goes. So in excitement, I impulsively purchased the HD 2 stroke shifter kit at sickbikeparts.com I know now I wasnt fully processing that this kit is not a "jackshaft" which is fine because ultimately I didn't want the "jackshaft kit", i was wanting a "shift kit" that idea is really awesome to me. Luckily, even though i misunderstood I got the right kit,(i think). I got my "shifter kit" in the mail today. This is my 4th bike build I'm starting. I've had a blast with the other 3 builds. Thank you all to anyone that has helped answer my questions. This is the bike that I'll be installing the shifter kit on along with a new motor kit I already had. I'm undecided about which of the two handlebars to put on it. Well thanks again everyone. I really value your feed back.

Did you check that after idling around? Looks pretty lean.

Yeah I did. Another question, can I just flip the head so the spark plug fits better like so? Or will it be a problem I filed everything down super flush.

I decided to adjust the c clamp on this one too

Head works either way. The U-bolt looks like it will hold better that way. Try moving the clip on the needle down one notch. Might help the idle but may affect the high end.

I mentioned this before, but the proper way to check the plug is to warm up the bike and then ride it wide open for 5 minutes, grab the clutch and hit the kill at the same time and coast to the side, pull the plug and take a pic.
