That looks suitably loud

It will at least sound quick if it doesn’t end up being that quick! Joking with my friends I have built the fastest, old slow bike in town!

Engine looks good, it'll be interesting to hear how it eventually runs.

Are you going to run it on dyno to setup  ? As torque and power charts will be good to see.

They do have a distinct sound to them, these 750 motor in mechanical terms.  A big bore race one was started and run a while back at DS open day that sounded potent. Can't remember what he said as output though.

Was a CR present but they couldn't start it, ignition pack fault as I recall.

First fire up tonight.

I am pretty happy how easily I got it running, I will have lots of fine tuning of the carbs to do I’m certain. I would like to get it’s jetting dialed in on a Dyno so I can confirm safe AFR but for tonight I am happy that after 3 years since I pulled the motor it’s alive again.

That sounds remarkably smooth considering it has open carbs with no filters or pods.
The exhaust note is going to sound pretty awesome when given the beans.
Well done and thanks for posting the video👍

Sounds really good, both exhaust/intake and mechanically.

Are the carbs accelerator pumped ?

Thank you. Yes the RS carbs have an adjustable accelerator pump.
