Ghost in the Machine

Well the bike is running and having a blast on it, having had a big help from Tim at Cycle Stop and Glenn, had the bike on the bike on teh dyno after having issues with the stock carby, and after a day of mucking around Tim comes into the dyno room with a carby off of a huge Harley and it fits so on she goes. we had to take the accelerator pump off as it was over kill

I have taken her for short rides and I took one yesterday in intermittent rain and of course it died at a set of traffic lights a fair way from home, lucky it was near a liquor store! I asked the guys at the store for some tools and we got a basic kit out of a Landcruiser but I couldn't get to the carby with the tools so I had to ask for back up (I now will be carrying tools on her at all times!!) Lance came and grabbed me after shooting off an email from Starfucks coffee place and a few other emails also cheers Glenn and Eric
