It never fails to amaze how well some of these restorations turn out and just how gorgeous a bike the LC is even 31 years on.

What main jet size are you using?

I just put some expansion chambers on my '81 LC and I am scared silly of seizing the thing.

I am running an 84 RZ engine. I have stock everything except the Toomey Pipes, Dyno jet kit, Y boot and filter so I am running 420 jets and sorting the needle position and air screw settings. I am a little rich midrange and pretty close on WOT, perhaps a bit rich but leaving that for now.

I am jettin it tomorrow. I will let you know. Most people keep telling me in the 400's but we are close to 3000ft and mountains change everything. But I will let you know.
Man I wish I was 31 I'm 32 now. Everytime someone older hears your age you are instantly a kid. You boys like the hot rod generation better hope that younger folks take up the RZ interest or it dies and you collection is scrap metal.
