Last night I installed new plugs, set the points, and set the timing on my NEW F2 motor (with Mike Rieck's help). I took it out of the garage, into the drive way, and hit the starter.... and hit the starter....and hit the starter. Nothing. I said to myself, "F*** it, go to bed". So as I lay in bed, I wondered "Gee, what if I put the choke on?"
Anyway, this afternoon, I backed it out to the driveway again, put the choke on, and noticed that the kill switch was off. It fired right off, I rode for about 15 miles. I'd forgotten what it was like.
Still a few issues, the rear brake doesn't, (probably air in the line) and... surprise, surprise... carburetor problems, but from here on out, I think it's going to go well.
