well ruckryderz came out and helped me pull the carb on it....i dident know it was so easy and i dont know why i was so intimidated....lol

well he got the carb cleaned and attemped to go cruise and get gas and my line broke half way to the gas station....and he ghetto rigged the fuel line and it works great now!

Now...with the 5g rollers...it accelerates nice but my top speed on flats is like 30-32mph

I think im gonna try new rollers soon maybe a 6.5g rollers...and also get a better shock for my heavy self im thinking a daytona shock/Kit Air intake

i did gain about 3mph with the clutch springs...acceleration is ok...not to noticable...but you do have to open the throttle up more to go from a stop...

When i first took it out it dident feel right at all...it almost felt like i lost performance....the more i rode it the better it started feeling....

i did get up to about 35mph on a flat which is a great feeling cuz maxing 30-32mph sucks

but now one of my relays is clicking and causing my idle to fluctuate and die, and its starting to sputter between my 20-35mph......am i starving for fuel?
ruckryderz did put a bigger main jet for me.....

$8 muffler
$15 stock exhaust (bought an extra one incase i dident like it)
$10 Weld
Hight temp paint my uncle had i dident have to pay for lol

It is kinda loud...it does sound pretty good....its just not flashy...When and if i decide to do a stretch kit i would extend the pipe longer...or just replace it with a nicer looking exhaust kit...
