Grey Mull picked up a Project Sprint recently, and got her running right away. He wrote:

Marty- Have not done any cosmetic work on this bike yet. Just tires, cleaned muffler, new plug, gearbox oil, adj timing. I have been venturing further and further from home - actually rode to work today! This thing flies. Handheld GPS says it cruises at 47mph and WTO gets me around 53mph - I'm VERY pleased. It flies!.
