Well I drilled out the idle jets a bit to get that bit of hesitation off
idle out of it, and that intermittent light load miss..
Dumped the hot sauce out of the crank case and refilled with some Joe Gibbs
and ran it up Mt Equinox for the
Hillclimb and it ran great.  Im not noticing any missing or hesitation now
but I need to get a good gas mileage reading to see where im at.

It generally runs cool but it's a bit hotter when its going more slowly at
lower RPM, it didn't show any heating at all till near the top of the
mountain off the high
Speed section on the saddle, and driving home it was cooler at 65 than 45.
I need to put some highway miles on it too and see where its at under those
condtitons.

I really haven't driven it this year with the need to put miles on the crate
so it felt good, and I had the hill to myself once :-)
Boy Today's gas really must be getting bad to have to richen the mixture so
much.
