Barn bikes are not perfect bikes.And if I can get it running on an operative charging system where its getting the healthy 13.5 volts, this thing will run awesome, it runs super good onthe charged battery, and is it drops it gets weaker and weaker.  I will need some jet adjustment, but not much when this is all done.  And I am hoping the free breathing exhaust will take care of the rest.SO I am off to sand and paint, and strip out our old RV trailer.</blockquote>
