I took Incubus out for a quick ride a few times around the block yesterday, his first voyage. The good news? No problems with the clutch, no slippage or clunking on any gear, great acceleration above 3k rpm. Some sputtering off the line and some backfiring, but I haven't got it idling well enough to set the timing exactly right and I figure I still have some issues in the pilot circuit, but the carbs have only been cleaned once. I also have not yet put the Colortune on it, so I expect some improvement when I adjust the mix.
Meanwhile, I have been wondering what kind of windshield will fit this rectangular headlight. I know I can put a Vetter on there - I actually have a couple out in the shed that aren't being used right now - but I already have Vetters on three bikes, including Succubus the problem child XS11, so I'm looking for a different look.
Can anyone suggest a windshield that won't look out of place around this headlight? This is going to be a handsome bike when I am done with it, so I don't want a mutt barrier on the front.
BTW, I tried to search for an answer, but the site wouldn't let me search for some reason.
Thanks.
