CCA wantd that much and you never got me my damn quote....and shes more worried about next winter....and im not moving the bike, ill be riding it here soon anyways

and im thrilled that it drives and im glad i got to drive it home, but it needs a lot more stuff before its joy ride time

also, i need some time to get used to it...it was more nervewrecking than it was fun to drive it home...once i get familiar with everything it will be better...never thought ide have to learn how to drive an auto lol...plus, i was getting a lot of **** when i got home because my mom is used to parking in the garage and now she cant because my **** is all in there

i fired it up for her though and she jumped, then revved it to like 2k and she jumped again lol...she likes the car, so shes simmering down a bit...no major issues

im hoping that when it gets nice out i can get it back over there to have rob tweak on the carb and timing for me, and maybe get it to a track day this summer...but i dont want to rush it at all and risk damaging anything....the car is far from being done, but im ****ing thrilled its driving...never thought it would actually happen to be honest lol

i was easy on it in 1st and 2nd since you said it need some carb/timing issues, but got a nice WOT pull in 3rd....nuts!!...the torque was insane especially for being in such low RPM when i floored it...

now im ready for some nice weather so i can bring it back over and get the timing/carb issues worked out and find this trans fluid leak...... also hoping it stays cool with the one fan since it has so far, but only time will tell with the warming weather approaching

lmao got so many looks drivng this thing open header....wish i woulda had the gps in there to see how fast we were going....i was surprised the brakes worked as well as they did, slowed from 100+ to turn into my neighborhood from that light by the other entrance to my neighborhood lol...stiff *** pedal, but they worked great

was funny watching derek climb into it haha and he got stuck getting out too for a min like i did the first time

big things ide like to address soon:

carb/timing
trans fluid leak
fans (adding relay, or if need be, another fan plus relay)
gas gauge ( i dont like guess work lol )

and possibly exhaust...but the noise doesnt bother me much, but i dont think the police would feel the same way

when its 90 out, it will need the other fan for sure.

and i got the exhaust figured out..you just need to buy the pieces.
