The Z is pretty much sorted, so I need to get this one in shape and running. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m not doing anything weird, so it should turn out as expected\u2014or as I&#8217;ve been daydreaming about. <br>For now, <br>swap the harness for a new one, <br>run the ignition system with OEM full-transistor, <br>replace the regulator, <br>gel battery, <br>carburetor OH, <br>and then we&#8217;ll see how it goes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Classic bikes are really nice because they&#8217;re so simple. <br>The bodywork comes off easily, so you can really clean deep into every corner. <br>Honestly, if the harness has a simple layout, you could even take it out and polish all the way into the depths? (Though I probably won&#8217;t. . . . ) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3EtOAMk\">You could take off all the bodywork and just spray it clean with no fuss <\/a>. \u2190Definitely go big? <br><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3pu8zpN\">If you&#8217;re loaded you could do it with Plexus too? That might be nice? <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Going with some sketchy repro GS-type turn signals (&#8216;\u03c9&#8217;)\u30ce <br>At this rate carb bikes are going to keep going up in price. . . .
