It's alive!!!!!!

[bobbybob]

Well i got my new fuel tank in,..carbs back on from the 4th time of cleaning them out,..new fuel filter,...plugs..and "the beast" is finally alive and running!!:eusa_dance:.I got the carbs synched,and it seems to be running really well.Now if i can just get my shifter parts in,im ready to take it on its first voyage from a 15 year hiatus.Ive put alot of blood,sweat,and cash into this bike in the past month,and im ecstatic to finally hear the breathe of life coming out of the exhaust.Just thought id share my excitement.....and i hope that it isnt short lived!!unk:
