can you catch your fingernail on the scratch?

I ask cause I got a Fred head and I think he might have hit the chamber with his electric pencil by mistake when he was engraving 7.0cc on the under side. You can see it as its a different sheen than the rest of the chamber but you cant catch your finger nail on it so I am letting it ride.
 
not anymore i took some 2500 grit sandpaper and smoothed it out a bit didnt take much im gonna try to even it a bit around just to be safe hopefully it didnt change much should it? im having trouble with carb issues aswell stillgonna buy a new one today/tomorrow just not sure what one i can use really and could use a good throttle suggest ive gotten 3 different ones and hated em all so far
 
With 2500 grit all you did was polish it out didn't really remove enough material to worry about.
 
ok cool i noticed i was just making it into more of a mirror like sheen on it as i did kinda see myself in it lol i still need to find a suitable carb upgrade and throttle any suggestions?
 
I couldn't say. Still working on my first build. I have been recommended over and over again the Mikuni 18mm carb is a good sized carb and has more adjustability than the kit supplied ones.
