If you do pull your cam chain tensioner, don't turn over the engine with it off!

I had a fire in my air box also, not sure of the cause either. Probably PO, he never cared for the bike at all it seems. Was not as bad as 7981GS fire.Comment

I also had a fire in the airbox, though the engine still ran. I was a long way from home, so I used the key to poke holes in the remains of the boots and tearing stuff off so it didn't get sucked though the carbs or make the throttle stick, and limped it home. I have pods on it now haha. I think the fire was started by a backfire into the intake, because it seemed to happen as I was leaving a light, though I don't know what ignited it.Comment

I have learned that foolishly excessive amounts of starter fluid can at least start the process!!Comment
