Nothing exciting to update but the other night I split the lower case, replace the crank and transmission output seals then closed it up with gray RTV. Last night I got the bottom end finished up with installing the sump filter, cleaning the sump cover, new copper washers and re-tapped the holes. Starter is in with a new seal and the clutch is in with a new 1 piece pushrod from an earlier model (mine had a 2 piece pushrod with a ball bearing in between the halves). 

I hope that tonight I can get the pistons cleaned up, new rings on, and the top end all buttoned up.

Order of things to follow:
1. Finish engine (duh)
2. Re-build carbs. New gaskets and new jets (pilots and mains) one size up
3. Maybe try and fire it up on the engine stand???
4. Install into the frame and build the exhaust
5. Assemble the electronics housing and wire it up
6+ lets get 1-5 done first...
