Finally had a whole day to work on this project bike. Got the head on and able to turn the engine over by hand.
Set the intake and exhaust valves. Hooked up the battery. Pressed the starter button.Would not start. No fuel in lines and carbs.Used some starting fluid. Presto-Started.
This engine runs so smoothly and quiet.
NOW my problem is ( and I did not see it before) The head I replaced off of Flea bay has a broken bolt in the one valve cover hole. Tried to drill with an e-z out. The bolt is to hard for the e-z out to get a grip on it.
Now I have to decide weather I want to pour some money into it or sell it as is.
Needs brake help as the rear caliper is sticking. Rotor is pretty worn. Tires are 12 yrs old. In fact the rear tire valve stem fell apart in my hand when I tried to add air.
Will ride it and see how it goes.
Thanks for all the help you have given me.
