As far as I can tell, the slide on the carb is working fine and the bike is at WOT.
I have not used GPS to verify top speed yet, I will soon.
I do know that at up to 40 everything is mostly accurate.

I have a tach and register about 8k Rpms at 50.
I've seen a top of 8.5k Rpms.

I keep hoping I'd find something wrong. I even triple checked the sprockets hoping I misread them.
I even plan on double checking my valve adjustment.

But so far I haven't found anything wrong.
So, time will tell.
It runs fine otherwise.

I did seem to have an issue with the gas tank having a venting issue. I clipped a small bit of the orange rubber piece under the gas tank lid and that seemed to solve it.
Seems it was building a vacuum in the tank.
Was something else Gerry had mentioned to me to check.
