That useage of the choke is NOT bad.....partly since it is not a "real" choke. It is necessary and normal. That situation might improve a bit as the Gumout does it's work.
Good plan. IF you find your battery dead again, might as well start looking for a new one (after having the charging system checked). Don't fall into the trap of keeping it "alive" by using the tender all the time.
What's a "lubrication method" ?? Could that be "How to change my oil."? :biggrin: |
Great to know that I'm not hurting the bike with the choke. Lube stuff for me meant oiling the chain etc. to keep everything nice. I'm currently focused on draining the float bowl though
