King Rat Lives--That other 572

Been spending my time on getting my interior done so I haven't had time to re-jet the Carb...until today. Still a bit rich but...well, you tell me!

I need to bleed brakes...soft pedal... and tub the bed for some wider rubber. So, burnout video next weekend.
That motor has a fair cam lope so...when you start yours be ready to fiddle with the mixture a bit to get a stable idle. It won't be very smooth...but then that's the way a hotrod should be.

44 degree raked neck on a Jesse Jurrens custom frame. Front end is Mean Streets Avalon running a 23x3.75 Renegade Neuport wheel. The bike is an air ride, slammed to the ground. Stretched swing arm running a 20 x 10 inch Renegade Neuport rear wheel and 280x20 Metzeler tire. Motor is an injected S&S 124 in wrinkle black powdercoat hooked through a custom length 3in Rivera belt drive to a Rivera Primo 6 speed trans with hydraulic clutch. Wheels, controls are Black Chrome, front end is hard black anodized, primary is wrinkle black powdercoat. Haven't decided on colors yet but probably a dark silver frame & Tank with gloss black fenders.
