[QUOTE="tumunga, post: 5163, member: 58"] Got it running Saturday evening. Had to do a little fabrication on the throttle arm (cutting and grinding), and a trip to Buggy Works in Martinsville to purchase a universal linkage kit to make my old pull cable work. After double springing the throttle return, and more cutting on the cable, I got it going. I'll try to remember to take a video of it running before I start slapping everything back together. Electric choke seems to work. I connected it to the ACC connection in the fuse box. Blew the 30-year-old 5amp fuse quick, so put another one in it. The choke opened up after the engine was almost warm, so had to use the throttle lock for a couple minutes. I've got to put the stainless lines on the front, and then I start putting everything back together this afternoon. Hopefully will be running when the riding weather hits this weekend. The guy that builds them is dealing with a blood clot right now, so giving technical advice from him is the last thing on his mind, but he is buying me a Genuine Honda pull cable for my motorcycle. He says they're a little longer than the Motion Pro cables I have now, which would have kept me from the cutting and grinding. [/QUOTE]
