Ok, I replaced head, had to, because the muffler wouldn't bolt on. Then I was being stupid & lazy & wouldn't take off cowl for timing marks. Got that fixed & put back together. Was having a vibration/hesitation at take off, thought the air filter was clogged, because same day I had to set idle way up, took it out to see if there was a difference, & idle jumped way up. Went to motorcycle place for replacement filter, no luck, drive it home with it out. I'm viewing it out as best I can & putting the sure filter back in. then I'm resetting air/fuel mixture, & idle.

Could it be the fuel air mixture? A mechanic dude said he could hear it was sucking air on the intake.

okay no problem, it bogs down I don't know why it won't take off very quickly and it won't take off very fast, thought air filter was problem but it wasn't. now the entire vehicle is shaking crazily, it dies easily and then doesn't run at all. it is also backfiring, through the air intake, sense the air filter is missing. Could it be valve adjusted too right, I doubt it though because before I adjusted the valves, it did this then too.

Belt is good, I'll try clutch pads, what weights & springs etc should I get to achieve greater mph? I don't want to sacrifice mpg though

Headlight bulb just blown, it was charging just fine, extra low on fuel, shutter was a loose steering nut. Shutters still at take off though.
