well its back together again,,, runs very well,,, i took it out on a test drive today and it has stopped jurking and bucking which is a happy thang... ill play with the springs in the clutch to see if i can get a smother takeoff other than that im happy... cept for all the money and time i spent from making mistakes and potholes...

Big trouble in china town!!!

well with new parts installed and testing the many clutch adjustments thats avalable,,, i hit a newly extra cold winter made pothole and broke both the bolts that hold the pipe to the head... which in turn required removing the engine in order to drill out and retap the threads in the head... as well as i got another pipe that well help in allowing the engine to breath better and weighs about 10 lbs less... now to put it all back together...

ready to go back together...

new parts for the Rattler,,, clutch virator and belt,,, two new tires for the future...
