Nothing like a first start after a build. Running around checking gauges, oil, leaks, etc. You guys ever think about running a carb style air filter and filter lid? Not sure if it would flow better or not, just wondering.

Thinking about a Air Bell style cleaner, and going to have Lorenzo make it taller so it sits in side the hood cowl. Amazing No leaks, fired right up, idels great, throttle response is good, somethings got to go wrong...lol Off to Speed Inc to see O'l Jim and larry.

Should fit.

I like your idea though Ed. Seems like the tube/front fed victor jr's like to run the front cylinders rich as the air doesn't want to make a 180 turn very well and get to those holes. I'm not so sure getting cold dense air would help much when on the spray, but everything adds up. Hope to see it run even better this year.

Congrats on the 1st start. It's always nice to put something together and have it turn over right away! That should be a fun ride this year!

Why do you guys always put music blaring in your videos when you're wanting to hear the car? Turn the damn music off or way down when you want to hear it!!

Your iPhone audio sucked colton! When you sent me the video in a text it compressed so much it reminded me of 1995

Oh, probably like the compressed version of my picnic table jump. Quality is so bad in those. Side note, if you want a mountain bike, I may be upgrading this year...er actually kinda downgrading but for a more trail purpose bike. The down hill is a blast but takin it back up turns me into an armstrong.

You should do it!
I just picked up a 07 GSXR 750 for a steal cause this Marine was leaving Hawaii and couldnt ship his bike. Im thinking about putting a stretch arm and lowering the bike.
