and she needed cabs... she came with some, but i knew from the get go that i was going to ditch the stock cv's and go the mikuni route as i have more experience playing with those. i hit up MMM at 650 central and he got me all sorted out in the carb department with a pair of vm 34's, the hi vo ar manifolds, uni filters, and throttle cable. dude was spot on with the jetting!!! now as for petcocks... i snagged a pair w/ reserve feature from tc bros, not sure if its the petcocks or the angle of the tank, or the angle of the petcocks, but the reserve feature dont work for shit. fuckers left me stranded on the side of the road at 4am pushing the bike a mile to the nearest gas station.
it was also fender time, i used the 5" wide wassell style ribbed fender from throttle addiction, and made the struts out of 1/2" round bar and some bungs from lowbrow.
i also made up an "A" shaped bracket with the 1/2" bar and bungs that is welded to the frame, kinda hard to see in this pic, but i'll get a cleaner shot of it in due time.
at this point, i was very happy with the lines on this bike and how everything was coming together.
