Yamaha Carb Fixed (I Hope)
It was in the low seventies, here in Denver, today. So I worked on the Yamaha, after getting home from Grand Junction (lab inspection).
I took the float bowl off of the right-hand carb and installed the new gasket. I then ran the bike for a few minutes, leaning it on the side stand to see if the leak was gone. All appears to be well.
I did notice, however, that the centerstand tang hits the left muffler. This doesn't allow the centerstand to retract, fully, and causes it to touch down in the corners. I will try to bend the tang, some, and see if I can make it work.
I also rotated the bars forward, somewhat, to give me a more natural hand/wrist position. It also looks better, to me.
Coming soon: New headlight mounts and headlight shell, levelling up the seat pan and finallizing the mounting, tires and tubes, rattlecan paint job, new brake pads and new mirrors.
