Thanks for the replies. I wait for fuel pressure to build before starting. Seems to me it's lacking fuel initially. squirrelman--Carbs, yep...
Rainbow, I dunno, I think it's cranking plenty fast enough. I've had a bunch of bikes it spins with the best of them off the battery. thx
My 98 with almost 30k on it , owned since 6500, has always taken at least two or three tries to get running first start of the day(40-65 degrees...
As usual, thanks guys. Summer is here finally in NH. :thumbsup:
Does anybody make the clear sticky stuff that is removable from painted surfaces. I need some for my saddle cowl. Using soft bags, the straps...
Welcome fellow vifferman. Clean 02 to say the least, like highway star said. Lots of info here on saddles, and almost everything else. I always...

I've got one for sale too in the classifieds, and what a deal $55 and I ship to lower 48.:spy:

OOTVS, Ha Ha, yep know what you mean, my 700 ( still wearing it sometimes) has that protrusion out back too which rubs against my jacket collar...

Well put. Wished the topic was on a gen 5:thumb:
