Hi Greg

I met a few people from your neck of the woods at the National. Off the top of my head I can't remember his name but he was traveling all over Europe and had just gotten back. He was ridding up from Florida on his eventual finish in Seattle. Nice guy. He mentioned you just missed coming to the rally. There were a few bikes with your kit. Some great looking loops.


Anyway


I am having a heck of a time getting me Eldo to run right. Black smoke fouled plugs. I just put new atomizers, needles, float vale shutoff and enricher (choke) plungers in the carbs. I hope that works. When I got the engine to rev up to about 2-3K RPm the gen light started to glow dully. That make sense to you? I checked the wiring. It looks correct. I will check again. It is really simple. Nothing is happening with that until I get the bike to idle and accelerate properly. If you have any thought on this let me know
