I can't wait!

Here are some pics:

The engine went on without any major adjustments.  Took the flange off the Carb in order to move the Carb in 2 inches.
Added a chain, new ignition, new clutch.  Did not put on a torque arm (couldn't fit it).  While I had the bike in, I replaced the alternator, rotor and regulator. I also added a 150 rear tire.  We also had to add a spacer for rear wheel sproket.  Will Dyno it after its broken in.

thanks

it is a lot of fun. I haven't had it wide open yet but i did tweak the throttle a bit too hard the other day and found my ass half off my seat and on the rear fender. Kind of freaked me out a bit.  Starting to get used to it. Cant wait to break in the engine.

I don't doubt it.  Any idea of the HP and torque of that motor?  Your bike only weighs something like 560 lbs with an Evo, so with easily double, maybe triple the power of a stock Evo, you've got a real rocket on your hands.  Be careful with that thing.

i really dont know (not sure why i didn't ask).  i will take it to the Dyno once broken in and i will let you know.  

Wes at cycle rama suggests that he work the heads if i really want to wake this thing up. He wants to install oversized intake seats, 2.200 intake valves, trick valve job, port the intake manifold etc.  

Stop the madness - does it ever end?

hey guys

here is question for you.  I am getting the paint redone.  The paint has really faded over the past 10 years and i want to bring out the ghost color flames.  While i am doing that, I thought about getting a different rear fender and a fatter tire. The question is what size tire would you consider (180, 220 etc.).  What do you think would look best?

Fatter rear tire:
