After weeks of sitting in the shed half torn apart i pull my Ninja out yesterday and started working.

Tightened the Head bolts up quite a bit, Flipped the cams 180 Degrees, and put it back together.
The cams where over lapped and Flipped(spark at the wrong time and no compression)

First try it fired up!
*With out the muffler it was Effing loud*

A bit of Black smoke from all the Crap in it and its running GREAT now!
No trouble starting Or oil leaks either!!!!!

Actually quite proud of this now...
Filled it up with Anti-freeze and topped off the oil and bolted the pipe back on:rockwoot:
Might go for a ride later today or tomorrow

It may actually be a bit better than that ancient triumph. I saw one of those old bonnevilles a few weeks ago in almost 100% original condition. only had some odd pipes on it, may have been stock I honestly dont know, but it had like 45k miles on the odometer. crazy old but must have been in good shape.

I loled and feel a little bit bad. How much money do you have in your bikes including repairs? You probably could have gotten something a little more reliable if you would have waited and saved a little longer.

Bike+repairs i think only $850

And it either fouled a plug or ran out of gas....not sure which yet..
