Ive read your post a million times. Lol. But you have cams and head work. Cant do all that right now. How is it holding up? Any new issues?

Due to the crazy ass winter we've had, despite the dry roads and diminishing snow, I still have a 2 foot ice dam in front of my garage door. So, it has not been out thisyear yet. Lots of salt dust on the roads still, too...

So, no issues this year.

Had loads of fun the last couple summers. Rear tire is the big issue now that my gave Avons arent available anymore.

You do yours by re-sizing the rods?

Wheel spin taking a toll on your tire?

The ride to work today was fun. Definitely more pep. Love it. Could be the cold air but i might have some cwrb tuning in the near future. Cruising to throttle kinda hesitated for a sec then took off.

a) Yes, it can and does.

b) lack of good 18" rear tire options...I love teh Avons...can't get em anymore.

c) afraid the shinko will suck, especially with more HP.

Is there anything we can do to prevent wheel spin. Suspension?

If your rear is lit up, you ain't accelerating - at least, not in the direction you want! canofworms

Few problems...
On take off it hiccups then takes off.
If i pull in clutch from cruise it dies but doesnt if i run rpms down before clutching.
Steady cruise to throttlw hiccups too.
Any ideas?
