I have a stock airbox phobia

If your running the stock intake boots they will need to be modified to run v force reeds, not a big deal tho. Also something to keep in mind, the jets included in those kits may not be the same as what’s in your carbs, if they are not the same do not use them

Looks like some blow by in the last pic? Or a shadow? I would rebuild it. If they are cast pistons, although they are fine and you can run a tighter wall clearance on them, they don’t like to go past service intervals or put up with as much abuse as forged pistons, last thing you want is a cracked skirt and wrecked motor. If you don’t know what’s in it or how many hours it has done I would rebuild the top end and inspect everything else. At least then you know what you have and can have confidence in your machine. While it’s open clean up that exhaust port, If you want to eliminate or at least greatly reduce that carbon buildup polish it and use a good ester synthetic oil

You need new cushions and check your clutch basket fingers for grooving also. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Most oem baskets will develop some play, won’t cause shifting issues but best to repair anyway. My basket has about 5mm of play and it isn’t causing issues, but I have a rebuild kit on the shelf waiting to go in. Mis-alignment will still allow shifting in one direction but make shifting in the opposite direction difficult but usually still possible. You need to look deeper. Split the cases and inspect imo.

Claude, put a matching seat cover on that unit.

Are your main jets big enough? Jfc
