Congratulations Mat. And it is great that you never blew the engine. When I took mine for the first drive I had one small water leak around a hose, and a gas drip. The water leak was fixed by tightening the hose but I had to change the gal line fitting as I think the one I used had a bad thread in it. Nothing like that first drive. As for the ear plugs, I had mine toned down to get past the road side sound detectors they had around here and I still wore ear plugs as after about 30 miles that continual low roar would deafen me.
