    Know your mechanic

    I hope this doesn't pour more gasoline on this dumpster fire of a conversaation but I don't need any help doing carbs - my first carb job was in 1968 or 69, I can't remember any more. I spent an entire week at the Suzuki training center in Chicago in 1975 just on Mikuni carbs and another week on...

    If some out here were spent as much time learning or working on carbs as they did insulting others maybe they'd be good at it.

    EXHAUST

    Your neighbors won't like the sound and after about 100 miles, you might not either. Wear hearing protection if you do this. I wear hearing aids from such behaviours decades ago, LOL.

    EXHAUST

    I wear hearing aids now from too many loud bikes and sleds in my younger days. I barely need them, but music is better and general activities are much easier with them. At a minimum always wear soft foam ear plugs or whatever you're comfortable with around high dB areas. Were you ever near that...

    Marks Exhaust?

    Since you guys are laying out all the facts on exhaust add-ons, one of my Maxes has Mark's silencers. Everyone loves the sound. What are they doing to the HP and T ? Thanks, Tom

    Should I change my main Jet?

    What's your elevation and where did the bike come from ? And the ambient temp range for you and the previous owner. I'm not familiar with the jetting chart but hot thin air will bring that MJ size down.

    My eyes hurt from looking at this 'Ducati'

    LOTS of creativity, hard work and craftsmanship (5 stars for these) but with probable overheating issues and a 30 mile range, (1 star) not very practical and certainly doesn't work for me. Without the wheels it could have been George Jetson's daily ride !

    High rpm deceleration popping

    "No change in behavior between before and after" applies to all sorts of things in life and common examples are a transmission repair and another is a Vmax carb repair ! Many times the reason is there also was "no change" in the system between the "before and after" due to misdiagnosis, improper...

    Oops, hit send too fast. Can you email me a price for this and a matching front ? I think the wheels should match and be pimped out the same with a subtle blue pin stripe or whatever. [email protected]

    Parts For Sale Gen 1 body set SOLD !

    I don't know much about tires but what kind of tire would look and behave right ? And how wide could I go with the stock arm ? Maybe a guy could have some kind of matching blue accent stripe put on this ? (Subtle) Or just buff them out ?

    Parts For Sale Gen 1 parts for sale

    Hi Daniel. I was on the road yesterday and didn't understand your post. Maybe I'm in here poaching on your sales post ? If I was I didn't mean to do that, I was responding to the inquiry about a brake lever and had no idea I was in the middle of other sales activity. I'll pay more attention...
