I'm at my wit's end.
My saga of woe with this bike has been documented here. Suffice it to say that the bike had a piston melt down.
I've had the cylinders bored and honed, new gaskets, set everything up per Vech and the Barrington book, including timing, valves, magneto position, cleaned the carbs, all jets are clear. I think I even got the differential timing worked out.
I put the bike together on a warm day a few days ago, and nothing. I get spark, and as far as I can tell I'm getting fuel through the carb. I was able to get a few "chuffs" with a push start, but nothing after.
Today its 40 degrees out, but the bike is in the garage. I didn't try push starting today, but I'm still getting spark, and as far as I can tell, I'm still getting fuel, but not even a chuff.
I just can't figure it out. So, I'm throwing in the towel. Is there anyone around here that can work on these bikes? Anyone want to come over for a "play date" and play motorcycles?
