    On the run repairs...

    I was on the 550..made a turn and when I attempted acceleration..the motor quit. I noticed the throttle was behaving funny. had to pull over and ended up yanking the gas tank, the bottom nut on the throttle cable at carb linkage came off. scare the lights out of me. I thought my coil relay went dead.

    Maybe, this is a message to check nuts and bolts for tightness- you don't want things falling off!
