I finally got some time on the Sherco with fww installed.
First off, it started and ran and didn't make any noises, so I must have installed it correctly.
It seems easier to loft the front. Is that a characteristic of a fww? I almost had to go put a helmet on Maybe because it needs less throttle and I'm still giving it the same? It does tractor better thru my mini rock garden, just kinda idles thru it all.
Of course I had to pull the front and patch the tube again.
I seem to be good at fukking up the front tire. maybe I should actually put some air in it before I start riding?

Finished putting my old Beta back together. The seat looks like crap, but it's original. I need side panels, I've got some diamond plate laying around, so I'll see what I can do. All I need to do now is add gas and start kicking.

I did a LHRB conversion today on the EM. I was hoping to keep the foot brake but the braktech rear master cylinder does not have a circlip the holds the reservoir like the nisin rear master cylinders. I used a -3 ptfe build it yourself line from Pegasus Auto. This allowed me to run the line through the swingarm like the OEM rear line. I also covered the braid with some clear heat shrink tube to prevent chafing. Here are the parts if someone else is interested in making their own brakeline.
