    Thanks Ray, but that's okay. This list is better than any manual.

      I know, but sometimes if you get the proper specs, it will make things easier. We need to to get together sometime for a ride! Maybe you would like to ride up here for the Dream Machines next year??

              Valve adjusted to spec...had to order one shim, even though I thought I had a stash (which I found today in the safe place I put them). New non-resister spark plug caps, new gasket, button everything up, go over it one more time, prime the carbs, push the button...she starts right up.

              Is there anything more relieving and gratifying?
