Gauging your timing by when the points are about to open by eye can have a wide range of results.
I disconnect the condensor and use a 12 volt test light connected to the points. The light is on...

The wiring to the handlebar controls is easy to pinch when installing. I would start with removing them and trying to operate them in that condition.

Definitely should be more evenly heating. The symptoms you just described sounds like a miss for sure.
The plugs should tell a lot of the story.

It may be jetted a bit too lean of its mostly used in summer time. Try with a little choke or enrichener on and see if it helps.
My 70 takes enrichening for an extra mile or two in this weather.

Just heard Pfizer is about to roll out covid treatment pills. It would be a terrible waste if covid was going away...

Wow! This is so much worse than saying we should March "peacefully and patriotically" to the Capitol...
And it definitely worse than trying to look into Ukrainian corruption!
That dude is one bad...

I believe you more than most other sources. It is frustrating to me that politics has infected every aspect of life, and that what we are told varies so much depending on who is telling it.

I hear what you're saying. It does make me think.
It makes me think the numbers are politics.

This is the way things are these days. The misinformation is written in bold, the retraction is always regular writing, and only when called out.

Well he was right about one thing. It was an act of racial hatred. The guy is an absolute lunatic.

I've started filling my vehicles with rec90 gas before I put them away. Costs a bit more but no methanol is worth it considering what can happen.
My garage is conditioned so I just use a battery...

I believe you Jim, but my bike doesn't fit that description!

My bike has a nut on the end of the axle, I tighten it down real good and the axle can't move.

How do you short out a ground?

I worked at a shop for a while, we rebuilt a few shovels.
The main mechanic went over all this with one guy about like Jim recommended.
He left the parking lot nice and calm and then we heard him...

I've got a hydra-glide front end and air...
