I love it!  Sounds great, but the idle needs to come up a bit.

Yes it does. At 00:26 you see him lock the throttle set pin in place just to keep her running. About a 1/8 to a 1/4 turn on the idle would do her good.

Sounds fantastic. Hope my 650 sounds as good on its Dunstall silencers when it's back together.

It takes a lot of practice to sound like yourself

First thing I thought of was that smell when you first crank one up
and she is a bit rich. Ah, memories! ;D
