    Right on, no worries!

    As an update for the vf500, I believe I may have worked out my idle issue. I thought I had a vacuum leak, but I reset the pilot screws based on the clymer manual, it seems that when I rev it no longer hangs at high RPM's.... My guess is that it was far too rich and had residual gas. I sprayed around the intake boots with wd-40 to ensure that it wasn't a leak with them and they were good (No rise in RPM), and I checked the two caps I could see that were on the carbs... good as well. I'll see if my top power issues are still there, but hoping for the best.


    Also mounted a new set of BT-45's today... super excited to not be rolling on cracked rubber anymore :p
