This post should wrap this up as a "project" thread. I got about 40 miles on it now and a few issues popped up. I have some gas coming from one of the overflow tubes and my mirror fell off yesterday! I've noticed a lot of those drain screws get chewed up on neglected bikes (the overflow and drain screw type). I think that may be the issue. I noticed yesterday the mirror was kind of limply hanging so I went to reposition it and it fell off! Good thing it didn't happen on the road. The tach bounces around too but nothing left that makes it a "project."
I got my electronic speedo all hooked up and working based on trueblue's thread. I rode it to work one day last week and my friend said, "Hey, that's the bike from Purple Rain" when he saw it. Apparently close but not quite it, I looked
Many trials and tribulations with this bike. From the water/coolant fouled motor to realizing someone put a clutch basket from a cb550 in it to freaking out about a self-induced cranking problem. I'm sure I said it before but thanks to everyone who helped form a technical standpoint as well as a encouragement standpoint.
