That is a sweeeeet find! [thumbsup] 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.  :-\
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Rode both my bikes today! Commuted on the s2r then dropped off the 620 to get the repairs done.

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] [bang] [bang] [bang]

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 ;D

Did anyone go riding today?
I rode the bike to advance auto parts and strosniders hardware, does that count? ;)
