    Let us know how the Vibranator weights work...I don't recall anyone trying them yet. I snagged a pair of black D-3s on ebay last year, and look forward to installing them too.

      Yesterday i got to take the 77 750 for a ride..I had rejetted the carbs correctly, checked the valves and put some gasket sealer around the leaking rubber cam ends. It was a great ride.

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

                Painted rims with newly machined and drilled rotors and nice new Shinkos, just have to let the touch up paint dry and get them on the bike.

                            Unfortunately didn't get to work on the bike at all today as I was moving a household.

                                I got to crank my motor by hand... and see a spark on every revolution on both plugs

                                I don't know that it's solved yet, but it's definitely more spark than I've seen for, well... years...
