    Oh yeah that is the original stuff. I ran the heck out of that stuff and smells good! When I get these babies done, I am going to have them ship me a case of it. Go get a quart and try it, but always shake your bike so it stays mixed. It will seperate over time.

    When I bought that bike, it had no carb. I bought a 30mm mikuni from DG & put on it. (that was 23 yrs ago) No matter what I do to jet it, there is no bottom end. I'm sure I could find a custom reed assembly from back then & a fresh top end would help. But she screams on top.

    I think a lot of those old bike were just shall I say; on the pipe bikes.
    A friend of mine had one that I think was ported by Pro Circuit and it was a screamer.
