Decided to ride the bike from the house to Birmingham Alabama, about 100 miles one way, after I thought I could trust it...Got 74 miles out the interstate near Talladega, lost power, off into the emergency lane I go...was able to get the bike off the next exit and fill the tank, which was 3/4 full anyway. Rolled the dice and back on the interstate where I milked it the rest of the way to Birmingham. Coming back I-20 eastbound, was really bad..almost no power, but was again able to milk it to the next exit. Put gas in again, and a bottle of STP gas treatment, bike ran strong the rest of the way home....
Went to ride the bike the next day, it was popping and spitting back so bad it wouldn't even pull....coughing thru BOTH carbs worse than ever.......Screw this. I would take $1000 for the thing right now if someone would offer it.
