Been stuck in a late snowstorm on the top of a mountain pass, freezing my azz off, because of a stuck shut, tip over valve. In the trash she went.

MIne has caused me to stall everytime I have hit reserve since I removed the air box a year ago. I even replaced the vent tube thinking it may have had a bad kink in it. Today when I went to start the bike it would not kick over. I took the gas cap off and shhhhhh, vapor lock. Looked at the tip over valve and it was not vertical and not moving freely. Now it is gone.

I have considered a vented gas cap for good measure.
