Amazing you still have a 2 valve head. As long as it works. The one main advantage to the 2 valve head is it is less sensitive to overheating-less chance of head cracking. Good Luck, TomC

While I was in there ran the rack and adjusted the fuel modulating governor.
It is nice to take off and not smoke with the 70 injectors.
Also upgraded the exhaust. After all what good are jakes if you can't hear them lol, 8)

Thanks Dave, I hope it stays clean for a while I did fix a couple of oil leaks, maybe it won't leak as much because it's not alpine green. Lol
