    It sure is nice to clean the gasket, anneal it with a torch and throw it back on. Was the piston top that clean or did you scrape some carbon?

    I cleaned some carbon. It was pretty clean looking though. The head was spotless. Lectron and Amsoil... love it.

    Nice trails, the 500 sounds awesome.


    The yellow bumble bee series Yama I think of Marty Moates?

    He raced his race, he got to put it all together one time, for one day he was on top of his game. What a lucky guy most of us never get to feel that kind of success. 1980 carlsbad rocked that day. RIP Marty.
