I rode 120 miles yesterday, but watching that makes me want to go out now. :)

Put 250 main jets in to see if it would pull them. Ran perfect pulled harder. Then I pulled up to an intersection and turned on the turn signals and the motor missed. I turned them off and the dropped cylinder came back. I barely made it home. Battery voltage was 8.5 DC. After consulting with M in SC for guidance I pulled the ignition cover and noted the upper alternator brush arcing while revving the motor. I went to one of my parts stators and liberated a set of alternator brushes. 13.65 Volts DC revving motor with a fully charged battery dropping to 12.5 and 14.5 to 15.5 DC Volts with headlight on high beam, brake mashed and turn signals on. 240 main jet plug chop :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
