I use a gravity fed gun for all my soda stuff. Makes carb and parts cleaning quick and easy.

I was suprised too ! I heard people using this method to clean parts but i wasn't sure of its effectiveness to remove paint ... Well i was not disappointed

Nice ! I'll try it next time ! Those kinds of guns aren't that expensive ?
Just saw some video and it seems to work very well !

I have two. One for beads and one for baking soda. Paid $10 for one at a yard sale and I think $40 for the other which was new. The thing is to have a large enough compressor. Mine is 26 gal 150 psi but the cfm is low (4 at 90 psi) so it takes a while to keep gun at 80-90 psi where I blast at.

Looks good A 120 gal tank would be a overkill for what I do

I have the same mirrors. I'd suggest wrapping the mounting tube in friction tape to ensure a snug fit.
In fact the fitment is so tight at the moment that i have to drill the end of my clips on just to get them in !

Well, problem solved then!
Update
So i cut my cable and i found a cable end like this !
Not sure on how to proceed, anyone had any experiences with these ?
Thanks
Ohhhh ! Last question anyone knows how long of cable i need to leave between the end ( like the image) and the end of the housing of the cable ?

But im not sure what that piece is for (on the old one) ?
Looking like a resistance or a fuse not sure ? Do i need to keep it?

I think that's part of the auto cancel flashers. Useless with the new speedo.
The new speedo is not designed to use it.

Looks great! I really like the colour.
The neutral safety relay is to disable the e-start from engaging. I has nothing to do with the ignition. Blue smoke is oil burning. Smoke coming out of the carbs is a intake valve not sealing, out of time motor or bad rings.
