Ride and Sync

I put the rear fender back on, and lights, rewired the brake and turn signals. I decided at 50 degrees I would go for a ride and see how the bike handles after spline lube, and swing arm bearings, etc.

The bike shifts very easy now, and tracks well. The older shocks I put on seem a bit more spongy but ridable.

When the weather turns nice again, I have decided to give the front fender, rear fender and tank another coat of paint. The Black Rustoleam is protective, but I'm thinking of putting a lacquer coat of Dupli-color on the "tins" to make a nicer look, gloss black.

I have not put the new BMW emblems back on yet since I'm not done painting. The bike looks rough, but runs nice.

After the ride I used the carbtune on the bike, to see where the new throttle cables were at. At idle adjusted the screws so they were even, right around 800-1000 rpms.

I also tried to sync the throttle cables at higher RPM, did the best I could do alone, it is very hard to do this quickly alone, need a helper next time to get it right.
