I looked at it, frowned, then walked outside into the 45 degree rainy weather to get into my car.
(but a few days ago I installed a gsxr 1000 voltage regulator)

Put cleaned carbs back on, installed quick disconnect between carbs & tank, put new(er) petcock on after the last one started leaking everywhere. Currently trying to figure out why 2-3-4 header are hotter than number 1's header.

sounds like an ARF rich issue, or a simple no fire

Drilled out the rafters in my garage and put a 3 foot threaded rod threw them with huge hardware. Then took the fairings and tank off and I suspended the front of bike from the rod.

Gonna pull the front wheel, and forks. Rebuild forks, change wheel bearings, have new a new tire put on and then put it back to together with new pads and line as well.

Then I will do the rear tire, pads, and bearings.
