I use to participate in another forum before coming to SOHC lately. They are all out of BOTM contestents, so I made this video (with photos and writeup) to compete as a help to the site. I don't think the kids over there appreciate the classics so much. Probably be pitted against a RC51 on with every high dollar performance upgrade known to man. Here I am trying to show that this 40 year old bike is smooth and powerful. My jetting is not perfect but I'm getting close to my goal. Should have it worked out shortly.

I don't remember those roads in Virginia

Cool vid but you didn't go back to the nickle after revving it considerably higher

Sam.

Nice movie. Kind of a crowded road with peds and traffic for a back country farm road. Were those actors or stunt pedestrians?

The tune wasn't quite that smooth at the time. Not sure if the nichel fell over. Probably could do it now after warming it up and get to about 5-6k.

Oh man, the other guy is cheating... Bunch of new members signed up to vote from his other forums.

Competition tied so I had to improve my video for the nickel balance...

It falls at the end from the torque making the engine leap.

You are now one ahead

Good luck!

Andy

Edit the movie so that you are riding through a battlezone. Have Abrams crossing the road in front of you, RPG's going off and dirt hitting the bike. Maybe even have Cheney as one of those folks on the road. Sure win.

Oh man that would be hilarious! If only I knew how to do that....

HA! If you call that a "leaping" engine than you really need to go look at a late-model Road King when it's idling

We're so spoiled

You especially. Nice build.

Not looking good. Polls close tonight and the RC will probably win.
It was a good battle!
