That looks pretty good. I use mercury sticks myself...a little easier to read. You'll probably see a slight change every time the throttle shaft...
JD might be right...I didn't see his post before I answered (start of the second page). My point about the float bowl vent is on many models it...
No...on some models they go to a fitting on the airbox. Your vintage they just sit there, open to atmostpheric pressure.
You could offer to give the guy a ride on the back. My Brother had his Duc 916 stolen several years ago. He had it up for sale. The...
Take it apart and inspect it before you buy parts. A thorough cleaning maybe all that's necessary. The floats, needle and seats may be fine....
I've a set of blue ones for my RWB 07. I'm not sure if it's what you're after...but I don't think the 07 red will in any way match the RWB...
A little logic would do here. I'm assuming the fuse blows immediately when the ignition is keyed. Is that right? You can eliminate the turn...
My perspective as a full time tech for a quarter century? The price seems about right for this day and age. If the money is the...
A little more info on the neutral/starter circuit...I agree with Mason..go directly to the light green/red wire that connects to the neutral...
Sorry I didn't make this response sooner. I think you can remove the oil pan if you remove the front headpipes on your model. If you want to...
That's not battery acid...besides the maintainance free battery eliminates the need for a drain tube and they rarely leak. It's coolant. I...
If you didn't hear cooling fan, you may want to verify it's operation. If your cooling system got to the boiling point, the first thing it should...
If the choke makes it better, it's fuel related. If it only "acts up" above 5000RPM, sounds like something in the main jet circuit.
You could still have a marginal fuel supply. I wonder if your bike runs well for a "short" period of time like the original poster? I don't...
Wonder how that would work? A while back I read through a "how to" on V4 carbs on Jamie Daugherty's website. It was detailed, and had some...
I feel your pain...but from the other end of repair. I'm a 25 year veteran at the same shop. We draw the line at 20 years, but won't turn away a...
As for the fuel pump...No doubt that's a long shot. However, I worked on two 84 GL1200's this Spring within a two week period that had...
Or it could be rich...that would explain better cold running. When it's running crappy, try engaging a little choke. If it gets better, it's...
Probably not drastic problem...DOT 5 would be though as it's totally different stuff. DOT 4 is recommended 'cause the boiling point is higher....
BTW...I used to have one just like that...and I loved it. Yours looks to be pretty clean. Good thing you came across it before I did.
