It's roadworthy now.....Being road legal is another thing.....no headlights, taillights, signals, etc.

It seems like I have to do a lot of tinkering with the engine running though....adjusting fuel pressure....rejetting....changing air bleeds.....

I mean how can you do this stuff without running the engine? And most of the time it's idling while checking fuel pressure, air bleeds, etc....So it's not charging the battery. Therefore it's not getting a hot blast from the plugs....which in turn soots the plugs, makes it have a miss, and it doesn't start as quick as it did.

So here I am having to put another set of plugs in it and making sure the battery's at 100%......
