We have Ignition
After months of ups and downs, we finally fired the bike for the first time today (8-1-25) however, we still have stuff to do before I can take it out for its maiden spin.
For the internals to settle down properly we let the bike idle for a minute and let it cool down post which the engine was run for 10 minutes and was let to cool down for another 30 minutes and this process was performed one more time with the same time intervals. Further, with Boyesen dual stage reed valves that are now installed the main jets have to be reduced to make the mixture slightly lean. Also, we now have to install the Dynatek ignition coil and then adjust the timing on the bike so that the fuelling can be adjusted accordingly and carry out any jetting that maybe required as per the behaviour of the engine. So, still sometime before we can call this rebuild a wrap

Christmas lights are on finally with the bike idling at 1500 rpm and the temperature gauge showing idle idling temperature
Dynatek ignition coil have to be mounted on next.
