Did you get to ride in Matt's car?

I didn't, I will probably ask another time when it wasn't so hot lol. Just wanted to hurry and get to the meet and chill inside. I think Doug said he wanted to meet over the weekend, maybe Matt could join.

figured out my injector issue. only a small handful of shit to get done until the car runs again. Anyone know what torque spec the crank pulley bolt needs to be at? or have a torque wrench I can use to torque it down?

Just tighten it like a motherf*$&er. Shop manual spec is 181 lbf-ft. Be sure to put some lube (I use hi temp urea grease) on the threads and on the mating flange face of the bolt.

Welcome Dustin! Would love to see pics of the 80 CBR turned cafe, I freakin love old (relative term) cafe racer styled bikes. And congrats on buying the MY2000 master race.

Yea man, I hope to wrap up the CB750 in the coming weeks. Painting it a satin black with brown leather seat, black Euro bars and brown Biltwell Thruster grips. Should be pretty classy.

Also, what is "Master Race"? Noob nomenclature coming through here

Lol, its just an internet idiom to refer to something as the best of its kind. So the MY2000 mater race, meaning that the MY2000 is the best of the S2000's. Mainly said because that's what I have as well.

You're too young to not know this, hahaha.
