took a few min to hook up a fuel tank, its the stock coolant resivour.
Its only running on the front cyl in this vid, cause the rear cyl isnt getting fuel. I did have it running on both, just not in the vid. BOY IS IT MEAN

A pair of big noisy carbs with no airbox and no muffler on the exhaust.. of course it will sound mean. 
I have always liked the sound of big sport twins.
How goes the fibre fabrication? (tail piece and tank)
Edit: even with as loud as it is, you can still hear the distinctive VTR chirping in your vids. :P love it!

When I first saw the shot of the fork brace with the pink foam behind the forks I thought you were setting up to make a pattern for a new fairing. Then in the next shot I noticed the front end and foam are laying against the wall

Done list
mounted new larger oil cooler, plumbed it in
built a gp shift lever, fully adjustable
removed front faring mounts from frame, cleaned up and painted
removed casting and forging marks from both triples, and painted
painted steering damper and mount
began 3 piece front fender, I need to finish my fork brace before I can finish it though.
been running the bike some more. Front cyl has a fuel issue im working on.
working a few bugs out of my wiring harness, like the starter button not working
still need to buy a battery, air filter, and fuel cap and I can build the gastank then tail
camera doesnt pick up the deep tones that sound great
