The other side. You can see the swing arm clamped down in the back. My dad was taking the die grinder to it to remove the rust so we can paint it.

I see multiple carbs...

You said you rebuilt them..

Did you sync them? This is highly important...

So, I was dreaming this morning that the carbs were out of sync. Thanks a lot.

This thread is renewing my desire to get an old standard to tinker with.
I must remind myself that I don't need more projects or cash sinks.

Evan's been out in the garage tinkering with the Norton. OK, so he's probably throwing tools at it and cursing... he's been out there a while, I'm scared to go check.

All thanks to you.
