Lannis:

Glad that Eldo's running well.

For the rear pegs, companies used to sell a plate that spaces the
passenger pegs forward, and even offered passenger footboards. I'll
look and see if I have a set laying around.

As for the baffles, you're unlikely to find a set. You can, however,
buy new repros of those mufflers that have the baffles. I'd buy your
old set, since I like the louder note. Moto International has a set of
the mufflers sitting on the shelf.

I need to make a pair of rear footpeg mounts (no such thing on the
 Police model with rear crashbar), and need to find a pair of baffles
for
the Police mufflers (probably have to adapt something from a Jap bike),
and some general fooling around with it, but it's going to be on the
road on a regular basis now.

Thanks for the help, all. It wasn't completely wasted; I learned a lot
about my carbs, how to set the timing, how the distributor works, etc.
And my case can be a word of warning to those who haven't thought about
how long that gas has been in the tank or what you do with it when it
gets old.....

Where do you dispose of old gas, anyway? I dump old engine oil by the
5-gallon can every other month into the disposal tank at my auto parts
store, but I'll be they won't take gas. And which can did I put that
in
this time.....?
