Well the motor is rebuilt but it has not been started yet. Maybe tomorrow or the next. I did wire in the kill wire to motor. Once i get it running good i will clean up and paint it.
Thanks Randy for posting this for me. Got the little guy up and running tonight. I was little bit questioning the rebuild job on the carb. I will run it a few more times and drain oil and refill and paint it then. Might be silver by nect weekend.
Its been a few weeks but i got the motor painted today and the waterslide decals put on. The color is a tad darked than what the color chip showed. I used a Mercedes Benz color for silver the chip was the lightest and brighter silver out of all them but it is going to have to be good. Minibikepaul has some of the best reproduction decals that are made today. Just like the factory ones. True waterslide decals. Thank you Paul for the great job on decals.
Update on progress. Jim Kise from
Blackwidow motorsports was a great help
Called him up amd told him what i needed for the sprint for finishing parts and we got talking and told him about this build and what it was for and Jim donated all the parts pictured. Super nice guy to talk to.
Anyways. I got the motor bolted down and chain tight and lined up. Got the new kick stand on it too. Finish up hooking throttle cable tomorrow and hook brake cable up and lever tomorrow too. Might even do the chain gaurd
Looks awesome. I saw Karen today and we were talking about how nobody could see the diamond in the rough at Windber because of the hideous paint job.... Well just look at it now.Very nice...
If there were trophies for before and after this one would win.
Almost done with the Sprint. throttle hooked ,gas line on ,chain gaurd on,decals all on except the top tank decal. I need to get the kill switch button on yet and the seat will be coming here in the next couple days.
