And nope, it's not one of those "needs carbs adjustments" bikes :) All color tuned and synced. Float level is spot on as well. Bikes fires right up and idles smoothly. i put about 100 miles on it and the number goes up video to bike running: https://youtu.be/1_F4r9Ygk1g here a list of what was done, which was pretty much everything.
