Well, we've been over this before.....more than once.

What "you" would do is not necessarily the best advice for other riders with less (or unknown) skill and experience.

I would NOT blindly recommend that but instead suggest a double strength dose of Berryman's B12 Chemtool and a couple of "spirited" rides over a couple of days. If that doesn't help, little has been lost......and it certainly won't hurt anything.

P.S. I hope the old gas in the tank was removed and flushed out.
It would probably be a good idea to add an inline fuel filter after the problem is solved.

I gave the advice not blindly, but on the basis that he had taken the carb off and reinstalled it,he just didn't completely dissemble & clean it.He might get lucky buy running some cleaner through a couple tanks of fuel.Sometimes when replying I forget that not every one is mechanically inclined,although in this instance I don't think that's the case.

:rawk: :whistle:
