Anyone know where I could find a center stand? Sidecovers? Have some tuning questions too.

Yes, I have a chromed one I'd sell for cheap, I bought another as I'm restoring mine back to stock.

Get side covers here...

$20? I could send a pic tomorrow. It's still on my bike, but I could prolly pull it this weekend.

I have a beautiful side stand I'll give you too, just needs a minor weld repair.

Ok, I may have time tomorrow to remove it. 

What cond it your bike in?   I plan on replacing the aftermarket exhaust on mine soon, Z1parts sells a repop version of the originals supposedly mold from the original molds.

Took a while to get back to this. So it's got a kerker 4-1 exhaust and pod filters, upgraded ignition to ????? Maybe something like a dyna, all I know is it ain't points. Haven't tore carbs down yet but plugs on 2,3, and 4 look great, plug 1 rich. My real question is off carb subject, how quiet can I realistically get the top end? I know there is shims but can you get them quiet or will there always be noise. Compression with a dab of oil in 150s. Haven't rode it much but it has a little roughness running at cruising speed, almost seems like it is warmed up fully and you pull the choke and have that sputter and you push choke in no sputter all the while just riding down the road. Still yet to sync carbs.
