Progress: a little tuning

Took some time tonight to do a full tuneup on the Tunebug. Torque the head, check valves, timing -- the full checkover. Running smoother now, though I'm still taking it easy. Plugs look good as well now that the timing is correct (it wasn't advanced quite enough)

Now it's just a question of putting on some good break-in miles for the next couple of weeks, and keeping an eye on everything. About 300 more miles to go and I'll change the oil and be able to dig in a bit more. Sure feels good to be in the tuning phase of things. :smile:
