    What a Rush !!!!!!!

    Today was the first day since I took delivery of my kit in July of 04 that I heard the engine run. Started it up this evening with Family around and the wife holding the fire extinguisher I was not disapointed. No leaks and it pounded the ground as it idled. I did have some problems with the clutch. Had a very hard time shifting into reverse and the more I pumped the clutch the easier it would go in. Sounds like I need to bleed the clutch better. Any thoughts????

    Congratulations! Nothing like hearing that sound for the first time. As for the clutch.... lots of trial and error. Bleed it and adjust (part of the fun - get use to it).

    Scott,

    It's a good day in the neighborhood

    The next big thrill will be the drive, sounds like you are close to doing that.

    Keep us posted.
