My life is a routine now. I come home from work, take a 15 minute nap, do my chores, eat dinner, and go out and work on the bike, truck, or trailer. Usually the bike. About 10:30 I put the tools away, take a shower, check out the Speedweek news, the roadsters, Australian shenanigans, Sumo and Lars latest, and go to bed. A lesson from my experience. Concentrate on the engine, only, during the year for big motor work. Do all of the other stuff like the exhaust, intake, carbs, etc during the next year.
The carbs arrived today just like South Bay Triumph said they would. Is this Pandora's Box? It is late in the game and I am tempted to put them on the shelf until next year. Then I figure that I will learn a lot by using them this year and I had better put them on. The box has the carbs, intake manifolds, filters, and velocity stacks. A pretty complete kit.
