I work for a very respectful man who had this special bike I’m disabled (use to drive big trucks) anyways I couldn’t afford to buy it with 2,000 miles on odo but I have a desire to restore vantage bikes and it’s had set for at least 10ys
So he gave me the bike with title and all the original owners manuals and title but I help him still to this day doing odds and ends. 3B27E658-642D-4773-A079-95529330879B.jpeg571B302A-DED3-406D-9596-3DD6502455A7.jpeg
 
Remember this bike had set for at least ten yrs
So it was a pain to get it to run
The original carbs as much as I know about carbs just won’t do the job
But I’ll get more into what I did to make this bike run 85mph and it doesn’t break a sweat
First I changed to electronic ignition-points can’t keep up with this high rpm motor I don’t think
New carbs up the main jet size killing a lot of spark plugs for turning purposes Japan carbs just can’t do the job
I port and polished the intake and exhaust on the head for smooth flow then I put the cl exhaust on. If u look closer u can see the carb upgrade A8BAA693-2135-4717-9A8D-CB2A4A27FD79.jpeg
 
I’ve had the cb175 accel ignition coil for a lil while now helps this bike out so much
Throttle response is amazing is crazy fast but I’ve also got a dyna electric coil and did away with points
