T_Dub Topic Author Offline User Posts: 1454 Thank you received: 25	So, finally got out for a ride on the bike today! She's a bit lean off of choke, and she has trouble idling, so a bit of adjustment on the carbs and she'll be good to go. Starts up easily, pulls well, sounds mean. Here are some pics and the much anticipated video!! 1977 KZ650B1 -810cc -Cavanaugh Racing Head -Mikuni RS34's -GPR Muffler

Glad to see you make some noise with that bike. Congrats on getting it back together.

On a negative note you shouldn't have let me see that poor Cobra covered with dust and being use as a storage shelf. Sacrilege I tell ya. If I ever had the pleasure of owning that car it wouldn't be used to store boxes. :angry:

Quick update. Bike is almost finished. New seat on today, and parts painted. Side covers are still with painter as he dropped them on the floor while clear coating. Bit of a setback with the carbs, don't want to talk about it but I wont be riding for a couple weeks.

I think the bike looks incredible, will look even better with the new muffler I'm ordering tomorrow. Pic of that is below. Its just an example, they make a direct bolt on in that style.

porchev914 Offline User Whats that? Half of my swingarm is missing?!?!? Posts: 2716 Thank you received: 19	That is cool as hell you got her running Ty! The bike looks great even sans side covers. That muffler should look kick ass too, compared to that factory stainless piece you have mounted. Exemplary job on the bike!!!

DoubleDub Visitor	Agreed! The blue color choice is also really nice - like it a lot better than the black!
