    Just the usual stuff. BassCliff will be along shortly with his "welcome" page with all the details, but the most important things are to ensure the basics: valve adjustment, carb cleaning and adjustment, carb synchronization and electrical connection cleaning.



    One other suggestion: DOWNSHIFT.
