    the red one is gone. Failed project. I am not patient enough for carbs.

    Then again, I have another project with a carb. But I am quickly getting bored of it.

    its a 1990 Kawasaki KE100 2 stroke. I dont really want it anymore. Its just sitting right now. I think it still needs a couple things to get running, but it has compression and turns over.

    Id sell it to you for super cheap, and deliver it too!

    To Syracuse NY? or Milwaukee WI? Also start searching for Chinese carbs on Amazon. They actually work! I bought one for a 1977 Honda express that I couldn't get a main jet for.

    I was just in NY delivering a rear bumper! :annoyed: I went all the way up to Saranac Lake.

    I would sell this for $500. Im not sure if it would be worth it for me to meet you halfway. I kind of was referring to driving it to NJ, where @HolyHandGrenade is.. Halfway to Milwaukee, is Columbus OH? 6 hours from me. :eek:

    No. I did a shackle flip with longer shocks. Those Superbumps compress to 5/8"

    I flexed the truck with a fork lift until the opposite side tire was off the ground. The bump stop was JUST starting to touch the frame.

    without the extensions, the shock bottoms out.

    thats what I am seriously thinking about for the spring. A Harley 48.

    I used to have a Nightster, which I miss now. The other bike in the garage, I still have. 2014 Yamaha FZ-09. I think Im going to keep this one. Its my first bike that I bought brand new. It had 0.1 miles on it. Now has 9500, almost 3 years later.

    What shocks are you using? B110s?

    I have hockey pucks bolted to my strike plates, and timbrens instead of super bumps. Did you measure with your shocks off for compressed vs extended lengths?

    Yup, B110's. I just put it all on, flexed if with the fork lift, measured, and extended the pads. Did I screw up? Lol!

    That's a good point. I didn't measure the actual compressed lengh of the shock while flexing and compare to the listed compressed length. I guess I just figured if the opposite side tire was off the ground, it wasn't going to compress any more?
