Hi,
Sorry to hear, you can always do things around the house to keep you busy, or shop!

Update
Good news....
Spoke to the bike Doctor yesterday mornin'. Everything sounds like it's fine - he said all of my gaskets were in bad shape (dry, brittle), but we don't think they'd ever been replaced, so he's already got them all on order. But he said he does believe that's the reason behind the little oil leak, and doesn't see anything else that could be causing it. Carbs are a mess; there's some valve he said is ALL gunked up, so he's got that torn apart and is working on cleaning everything out (which should reduce or eliminate that 'hiccup' she's got in first gear). So it'll be a few more days (he thinks he had ordered the wrong spark plug gaskets, so he had to reorder those), but it sounds like she'll be coming home with a clean bill of health. If she does, then the next project is getting her some new skinz, and making her pretty. |
