Yeah, it was a slipping clutch. When I adjusted it before I didn't leave any free play in the cable, so it must've been just a touch engaged. I re-did it, with about a 1/4" of play at the handle, and she's runnin' good.
Thanks for the all the input and advice on the bike. Except for a few minor issues, she's a-rockin' and a-rollin'! If it weren't for the knowledge on this forum, I'd probably still have my carbs apart on the coffee table in the living room, scratching my head.
Oh yeah, installed Tkat's fork brace last night too. Dang, what a difference! Anyone who doesn't have one yet, get one. www.tkat.com
Now I just have to hope for a few more days of good weather before it's too cold to ride. Bike's naked, and the fingers were blue after a half hour, and that was even with wool glove liners.
