    Gs1000g embarrassing question

    I’m working on a 1980 gs1000g. And I embarrassingly have lost one of my carb bowl drain screws, Does anyone by chance have access to one or know a place to buy one
    It?s my bike I?ll run it in the ground if I want to

    A hardware store should have a selection of metric screws.

        I just found it somehow it was literally inbetween the fins on the cylinder. You could try to make that happen again and never never get it to

          Did it make you feel good when you saw it??... Me, I'd have found it the day after I'd got a replacement. Glad things are good
