Its been a long time, folks! In 2005 or so, I put on the VM, dropped in the performance cam, took off for the test ride and man did it pull! Then the cam chain tensioner failed. It felt like it still had life when the motor was apart, but jumped out, and the brand new cam and my ticker arms ate each other. Destroyed. I found an old motor from an 80s model, and did nothing with until now. So now I'm running a four speed, still need to modify the chain tensioner (or better, rebuild the old motor with a stage two cam and resleeve it to take something like a 100mm piston. Think the case would need boring?) but I have more trouble. The bike won't go over 50mph. Clutch slipping maybe? It isn't really revving either, but it does slip when you start off, then seems okay until about 40mph, then gets reaaalllly slow until 50-55, then nothing. I digress. Hello again, was the point of this! I'll get some pictures up soon.
