If I had to guess that's how I'd do it.

It makes the most sense to me as well but i just dont remember exactly how it came apart its been a month or 2 and i been doing too many projects at the same time again. I really need to do a better job at keeping track of some of these odd ball parts that i dont see on every bike. One of the round discs on the baffle was broke, i had my brother weld it so shes good to go!

Almost got her ready for AMA!  Had no spark, stuck a new condenser in her and that fixed that problem. Few other little things done like hooking up the off/run switch. A good friend of mine hooked me up with his jet assortment kit so ill start out with a #390 and work my way down. I have a kit on order but it wont make it here in time for AMA which is my goal for this bike.
Currently rigging up a 73 RT3 360 throttle cable and i think i figured out a solution but i wont be able to get to that until late Sunday early Monday morning. Ill have pictures and more info on that IF it works. Other than the throttle cable the rest is smooth sailing, just a matter of dialing her in and tossing on the pipe, flywheel cover and pod filter.
