Progress for today



I made a bit of progress today. I got a compatible compression tester and saw 90-100 psi on both cylinders. Not the best ever, but workable.

I went to work on the carbs to see what needed to be done in that area. I began by cleaning everything out with carb and choke cleaner, and lubricating and loosening stuck parts with the penetrating lube. After consulting with the manual, it appears that I'm missing a few pieces, namely a throttle valve and both carb caps. I'm looking into getting a donor bike.
