In fact..Ive not had my
scooter on the road in at least 4 yrs. Its way over due to be started
again..been more than 6 months since I blew out the bugs in the jugs.
Thanks for reminding me. Ill probably have to rebuild the Bings pretty
soon..they dont like sitting for years.


H/D pipes? Post to rec.motorcycles.harley, they are a decent crowd
there.

As far as your poor R90, do it a favor, take out the plugs and
give each jug a shot of oil, turn it over a few times so all the
valves are closed, and put the plugs back in.

Ayup.. I do that.

I've had to help several folks recently with pistons siezed up
tight in the bores, from sitting. Not pretty.

Sigh..I posted something to that effect a couple years ago, here.
P'Blaster was what freed mine up. Even on the centerstand, one of the
jugs got wet enough to stick.

The Bing CV carbs respond very favorably to some TLC. Just buy
a gasket kit from Capitol Cycle and also a new set of diaphragms.

Ayup. And thanks

Gunner
