give me the rundown on needle postition,air fuel mix screw postion,

have you done a valve adjustment?

Have you checked the carbs?

And does it run OK besides losing to stock bikes..Everything sounds good and you got all you need to beat the hell out of those bikes..

Just a little tunning and that will change..

Oil Leak is most likely the Head Gasket from what it sounds like...make sure it still has oil..valves dont seem like they are adjusted either...

Do not run that motor until it is fixed.

I think they'll ding you for about $90 for the valve adjustment. Got mine done today and will let you know what they charged me tomorrow.
