Here's the site in case anyone is interested. After registering PLEASE send your frame and Engine numbers plus the build date so they can keep track of the A series. This may also help when someone needs a VIN tag but have no idea when the build date was. a1a7.com/forum/index.php |

Tonight I timed how long it took to transfer 225ml of fuel thru the offending carb and a "good" one with the fuel valve fully open. The bad one took 24.7s for a rate of 9.1mL/s the good one took 22.8s for a rate of 9.9mL/s. A 9% difference. I doubt this means anything, as I could drain my whole gas tank in a little over 9 minutes with all 3 carbs open full. Haven't found waldo yet. Bah!

You did lock this engine at hwy speed didn't you? Leo has reported doing this is violent enough to bend the trans input shaft. Combined with your uneven basket fingers this is likely what caused the broken plates. J You have a good memory Lc That was three years ago. Never even entered my mind. Good point. Any pointers on buying new plates????? Stock, Aftermarket Who has em...? |

Thanks boys! I appreciate the encouragement. I've had the diploma in my back pocket for 16 years.  I guess I just needed a little time to find the right opportunity. Ya don't wanna rush into things ya know. I've never been a professional pastor Rocket, just an "amateur".  I would not call you an amateur Drew as you have let me bend your ear for a while when we met at the bike show a few years back . I was going through a really ruff and transitional time in my life . Your support was greatly appreciated my friend . You are a super guy Drew and will make an outstanding Pastor . |

That drill jig looked serious. All I did was find a pattern online, Resize the pattern on my computer, cut out the paper pattern and spray glue it on the rotor (the hard part, one chance)
Then I used a drill press with a lathe chuck mounted to the bed. After each hole just loosen and spin. Still takes forever, lots of beer involved.
