The tariff guy just ordered 10% on European imports, effective immediately. I guess not just EU because England quit the EU. ...Rising periodically until they surrender Greenland. I think it goes to 25% in 3 months? Then 50%... Order your parts from EU and UK now while it's only 10%.

Tariff guy canceled the tariff last night.

I have some of those that are 40 years old. The holes seem to be what they say they are compared to brass Mikuni. There's a bit of nervousness when tightening them.

Did you check that the choke plunger is sealing ok?

The way the batteries are mounted is kind of sketchy. You can't get it out without lifting the gas tank. The positive post is so close to the tank that if the battery holding strap breaks it could slide over and hit. You can't get to the positive post, to charge it, unless you lift the tank and support it. I connect the charger to the main fuse under the seat.

Do you see anything with body of that left carb that looks suspicious?

oem spacer is 2 3/16"

15 3/8"

Next up, the stuck in traffic temperature rise??

Did you happen to pour some oil in there before the spark plugs and trying to kick it?

Along the top of the page it says 70% off and free shipping on orders over $60 ??????

For some reason these bikes are really tricky to get running just right once the original pipes and air box come off.

This is how I fixed my RZ stock carbs. It's kind of astonishing how they transform how it runs. I have them on my 34mm RD400 carbs also. I was skeptical at first but found out, wow.
