    wierd exhaust on gs1000 - you tube

    This should possibly go in another section so feel free to relocate it.

    Just thought this was unique. I guess you have to lean out the valves to get fire to come out of the exhaust to act as a tail light.

      I hadnt noticed that fuel gauge.... with gas prices soaring it is good to know that you can build a bike that adds fuel to the tank the faster you go.

      Also, I guess if your passenger is on the frigid side...those pipes may warm up the seat a bit for her.

        The traveler arm for them guage is broken and the needle is just flopping around. basically a Bi metal strip heeats and flexes..pushing the needle over. As the ( sending unit ) meters the voltage to the strip, the needle is only flexed over far enough to correspond.

        I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
