Bike looks great!!! And I'm sorry about the wait. I was doing them as a side job after the day job, and OT was killing me. I don't have the day job anymore (quit to pursue my own fab shop) and I'll be building them to stock and ship quickly.
I'm concerned with the one side lean. Which side is running lean. I'd like to work out that issue for future builds. I don't have a flowbench to test them on so any input is appreciated.

The left side runs lean and not much you can do because of the 180 degree crank from what I have found online.

what kind of rear-sets did you use? and was it hard to mount them?

Rearsets are from Dotheton.com forum member DurgamK see my build spreadsheet for link to the thread. Took some modifying on the passenger peg mounts to get them to work.

You work fast and your build progress had came along ways in a short time.I wanted to chime in on the mounting the motor but you got it taken care of already.I, was going to suggest cutting the mount from a seca or maxium but like I said you took care of the idea already,great work.

Seems legit
I know this is a really old thread, but for fixing the left cylinder lean-ness could you add a more restrictive baffle to the left exhaust to make it run richer?
