Alright... So next week I have a friend coming to help me with the bike. I got a little side tracked with my other projects but the bike will hopefully be running by the end of next week. ^o

Who's her????

That would be the motorcycle Chef... Dirty biker... The chick is for me.
Haha... I realized it's been almost a year since I started this resurrection. I have a busy month an a half ahead of me, but maybe she will run sometime this year.
Plus I haven't bought anything for recently

During the removal of the fuel sending unit from the old tank I discovered it was rusted to death. Our venerable Uncle Mike hooked me up with one, but it was damaged during delivery :evil: by the shipping company. I zip tied the unit together but as you can tell I don't like to cut corners.
So today I scored this:

Ok, so fuel guage will work. Does it run yet? :-\\\
Duane... THANK YOU!
Yes the bike is finally running. The problem? The ignition timing was off by one tooth. I kid you not.
Does that mean I am done? No. The carbs are running waaaaaaay too lean in cylinder number four and a little lean on number two. All the other little stuff still needs to be done (cleaning up wiring, fixing the neutral light, chain/sprocket, throttle cable adjustment so there is slack (don't ask) and a number of other small niggles).

Right on!..........
Along with a timing problem the carbs were hosed up, flooding out and required blowing into the vent hoses to get the bike started. We had to go to the backup carbs off the shelf and they need a bit of work too. I have the first set of carbs and I will figure out what the deal is and test them on my 650G ( same size as the 750) and get them back to him.
The 4th pipe blued up from a lean condition, probably a stuck float or clogged jet. Isn't there some polish that can take the blue off the chrome pipes?

Blue job I believe is the name of a good product.
Just ordered a can.... Let's hope it works.

It works, but you have to hold a seriously fierce gaze while rubbing. I even dripped a little spittle a time or two.. :lol:
Hmmm... Might have to wait. Getting married next weekend and starting my new job this week and moving the day after my wedding. Gonna be busy... But I did clean the workshop out today. You would be proud

Ya know, they say that moving/buying a house is one of the most stressfull events that we undertake. They say the same about getting married. And they say the same about getting a new job/switching jobs. You're plate is not only full...your cup runneth over!Hopefully the next two weeks doesn't land you in a "Happy Meadows" type institution.
Best of luck!
CloudbreakMD is trying to see how much stress a person can handle in one month. Getting the 750T running again lowered the serotonin levels a bit but there are plenty more Mallox moments to choose from.
Back to the carbs.
I will go over the carbs and test them on my 650G. The jetting is off but they should run the bike. As long as I get them flowing gas and don't see any flooding I'll return them to you. Meanwhile, get those electrical connections cleaned up, it's embarrassing.
