No way. I love the chop. Besides mine still isn't running that great. Carb issues. But maybe this weekend after I rebuild and jet the carbs.

Yes clear coat will be upcoming after I get the grind pattern a little more unified. So I was having issues with the carbs and just to keep it running without me feathering the pedal. So after rebuilding the carbs, jetting, syncing and timing it is spot on. :nod: Now for some lower profile front tires to get rid of that pesky rubbing so I can turn the wheels lock out to lock out Theodore will be on the road. To bad it's so late in the season.

I used a grinder with a abrasive wheel.
