He was in a much different situation. You don't need your bike to finish a cross country trip.

I wouldn't buy what he bought either, I don't want a liter honda or any numbers close to a liter.

That is for sure. It's gotta be something simple. I didn't have time to do it yesterday...mainly b/c I decided to drink some Jack Daniels yesterday instead of fix the bike...and today it's raining.

So it goes another day.

Nothing wrong with that...well except for the raining part.

The only time I ever had an issue like this was with a boat and moisture in the gas/tank was the problem.

Good luck getting it sorted.

exactly... fact is I don't see a need for 1000cc inline 4 on the street... especially with me riding it...


there'd be trafic jams at every light... waiting for me to pick the bike up and go to the next light
