That is a sweeeeet find! waytogo And very tempting Evil

But I'll definitely pass, it's carbs and 2V for me. No liquid cooling, 4V and wiring looms so convoluted to make the Mona Lisa seem bland and plain in comparison. I might switch to an FI bike when I can't stand carbs anymore.  Undecided

Stopped by Coleman's Falls Church for a little photo session. Guy says, "Yeah, it's swollen." Duh!! No kidding. Took the pictures and tells me not to expect anything quick. The last one he did took 4 months since the tank was on backorder.And they want to either keep the bike after the warranty work is approved or get a big ol' hefty deposit. Hello free winter storage! Probably 4-6 weeks before it's even approved... bang head bang head bang head bang head

So the 750 wasn't running well, missing beats under heavy acceleration. As usual I had thought of all the more sophisticated things, carbs, fuel pump, petcock... then I lifted the tank and it occurred to me it might be something very simple.



Some pieces of hose fell out of the filter as well so I'll put in new ones soon. Size is 5/16 if anyone is interested, not 1/4.

And that's why you need at least two bikes Grin
