Maybe I missed it, but do you have any pics of the intake and valves after remvoing the head? Yeah, I know, I've bugged you about this before. What can I say, intake pics are one of my vices.

Sal,
I do have some but it's pretty dark. I will photoshop them up and send them off to ya. I didn't put them up because they pretty much suck. There was not a lot of carbon buildup, more than a little but less than a lot. I am going to try a different grade/brand of gas for awhile and see if it likes it better.

Thanks Pat. That is one of the recommendations I've read....switch brands of gas every 5,000 miles, but stick with a top brand(Shell, Texaco, Chevron). So how many miles were there on the bike when the rebuild started?
Forgot to give you your props for the rebuild article. Much kudos and stuff.
