Test your charging voltage when the fan kicks on. Might be a charging issue.

Sounds like issue with neutral switch or the switch wire contacting ground somewhere.

Stock slide hole size should not exceed 7/64".

Heavy Metal by Mr Don Felder. Brewing up a Mexi lager and is going well with a golden bitter I’m drinking.

Inspected some shift parts. 2 of 3 forks are bad, as is the drum and one of the shift fork rods. Broke carb rack into singles for a cleaning.

Anywhere between 20-45 mpg. The more smiles, the lower the number.

Use any self tapping screw and turn it in a couple turns. Then pullout with a pliers.

Yep, on installation just a bit of glue and then easy press fit. The air corrector is required when using individual filter pods to restrict air through the main air jet. This air mixed with fuel from the main fuel jet. I think the Morley airbox mod requires them too.

Sorry for misinformation, my post had been deleted. Here’s a picture of the main air jet without the air corrector.

Have a safe trip back!

For middle gear, would need to remove rear wheel, final drive, swingarm and pull out the output middle gear assembly.

If float/float valves aren't functioning correctly, yes. Check needle valves, float, float tang, bent float pivot pin, etc.

like most things, first time is the hardest.

15 minutes to remove. Same to install.

Clutch is slipping it seems. To test, sit on it and put front wheel against wall. Shift to fifth, 4000 rpms and dump clutch. If clutch is ok will stall.

You'll have to take all that apart anyway to get the thermostat out so I'd replace all the drain valve o-ring, o-rings on both sides of the coolant elbow between the water pump and thermostat, in addition to the o-ring between the thermostat cover and housing.

Could be pipe where the drain valve enters too. There's an o-ring there and fits into bottom of thermostat.

I go to any bike shop and buy the wire for $.50 per foot.

It wouldn't hurt but Peashooter doesn't always work and then need to take apart carbs to clean. Take a look at the purge jet #2 opening on the inside, past the o-ring. That and other holes are super tiny. Peashooter doesn't clean the purge jets.

It's part of the purge circuit which supplies a bit of air in front of and behind the slide to "monitor" pressure differential and open/close slide. the air has to go somewhere. Air from purge jet #1 (inner part of diaphragms ) and #2 (outer) exits out the mixture screw area. I included pics...
