Well, pulled the carbs off the 750 yesterday. Unfortunately, the bike has been parked outside for months (under a cover). Tried to ride her back in Sept, and it ran like crap. Well, turns out that the #4 carb had sucked in all kinds of water and rust. Pilot jets on 3 out of the 4 carbs were plugged. MMMM nasty. After a good cleaning, then I realized my headlights weren't working. Aye carumba. Found a burnt out connector (high-voltage) on the plug. Luckily I have a lot of spare parts. Grabbed a new front harness w/relays, and rewired her. Working good now. Then, there was the issue of the front brake light switch not making good contact. Brake light was intermittent. I still need to clean that out. I think I need to ride more. - Nut |
