Carbed bikes idle just fine.

I do it because the sound of my bike gives me a boner... and who doesn't want a boner?

They ought to. The 450 idled fine and all I did to put it running again from its 10 year nap in the mud hole I pulled it from was clean the fuck out of the stock carbs. I didn't even replace any of the 20+ year old boots or gaskets, just submerged them in oil for a few days.

Perhaps... but how far back are you thinking...

Honestly I'm not sure why it started... I'm tossing ideas here.

I think perhaps OSP may indeed be right. I like the sound of many bikes... they do give me at least a 30% stiffy.

Erections while riding are really uncomfortable.
If you happen to tuck in the wrong way prior to getting on the bike it can be downright painful.


I call BS on the boner claim.

Heh 954's got a seat that's angled right to the tank, no sitting back on it. Makes me glad I've got a grower
