'Checked battery and noticed it was down to 12 amps. Its new but may of discharged it some testing things.'
or 12 volt?
Looks like a grounding problem to me.

Episode 15 is just amazingly awesome, sure defines the work you guys have been up to. Could be classified as the best ad that Yamaha could use. Are you going to post it here?
I did. July 31......

Well, we had some rough weeks over here in Pays-Bas. Due to my ignorance using 10-year old yellow Aspen 4, the 4 carbs clogged up totally (on the left 'Aspen', on the right fresh '98).
We renovated the carbs completely; removed all the parts and frame, cleaned them and ordered some spare parts. With some help of our local hero 'Danny's Motorservice' we put everything together and finally today: white smoke! (not literally.........)
This weekend we will post a video with the Yamaha back on the road, exact a year after starting the renovation.

Today we've installed a new fuel pump. The flow of the gas is perfect again.
Starting the bike is not. The Venture only starts and runs when we put some gas in de carbs. The flow of the gas to the carbs is good.
So we have a job to do this Saturday: getting the carbs off the bike and clean the gas lines. Keep you guys posted!

Agreed totally. Some companies/people are 'earning' a lot of money.

Don't get to philosophical, just no milk today! (I prefer 'karnemelk' / 'buttermilch' by the way).

Yes, after re-chroming they are made to the original specs (using a Lathe). Everything fits perfectly: no leaks!
