Goody's Description:

Goody's '99 Road Star.

Purchased 3 1/2 years ago with 3,000 kilometers on her. Now has 65,000 up.

Pretty much stock bike.  I have added a sissy and rack and a couple of small spot lights to front turn signal bar.

I run Metzeler 880's front and rear, 38 f 40 r, or 42 2 up and/or loaded.

Motor stock with stage 1 stock exhaust. Minor mods only.

Rerouted the crank vent to filter.

Nemesis coils and wires and Nemesis manifold.

Tank vented at cap and rollover removed.

Maxflo airbox and Plugs are Autolite.

Carb settings- PMS 2 1/2 out from seat, float 2mm below rear near to manifold mating surface, barons needle w/ washer, clip in 4th groove, washer and spacer (This is close to a stock needle set up), main is 170 Mikuni.    Pretty much stock settings.   Accel screw 3 1/2 turns out.  The Nemesis manifold likes the stock settings.  Main may go up or down 1 size yet.

Runs strong.  I will do a dyno run sometime to check the A/F mix.
